Trigo empowers grocery retailers to seamlessly eliminate the industry's leading consumer pain point -- checkout -- through a world-leading computer vision and AI-based system.
Accurately predicting human poses is crucial for a smoothly functioning autonomous store. However, annotating data for pose estimation is an extremely expensive endeavor. Thus, improving algorithms by utilizing unused, unlabeled data is of great importance and can make a significant difference, especially if it can be applied in crowded environments.
This project takes a novel approach, applying semi-supervised methods to the task of pose estimation. The project’s goal is to use self- and semi-supervised methods and convolutional neural networks to harness unlabeled multi-person images towards improving pose estimation with a limited amount of labeled data.
