What is Articulated Body Pose Estimation

In the field of computer vision, the study of techniques and systems that recover the pose of an articulated body, which is comprised of joints and rigid parts, through the use of image-based observations is referred to as the articulated body pose estimation. It is one of the longest-lasting challenges in computer vision because of the complexity of the models that relate observation with position, and because of the range of scenarios in which it would be useful.
