We also performed human marking on the images by bounding boxes of the Human 3.6M dataset (Protocol #1) for human detection evaluation. Our approach obtained high detection results in the image and the processing time is 55 FPS on the Human 3.6M dataset (Protocol #1). The mean error distance is 5.14 pixels on the full size of the image (1000 × 1002). In particular, the average results of 2D human pose estimation/2D keypoints estimation are 94.8% of PCK and 99.2% of PDJ@0.4 (head joint). The results are available.</p>
