Resumen

Macaque monkey is a rare substitute which plays an important role for human beings in relation to psychological and spiritual science research. It is essential for these studies to accurately estimate the pose information of macaque monkeys. Many large-scale models have achieved state-of-the-art results in pose macaque estimation. However, it is difficult to deploy when computing resources are limited. Combining the structure of high-resolution network and the design principle of light-weight network, we propose the attention-refined light-weight high-resolution network for macaque monkey pose estimation (HR-MPE). The multi-branch parallel structure is adopted to maintain high-resolution representation throughout the process. Moreover, a novel basic block is designed by a powerful transformer structure and polarized self-attention, where there is a simple structure and fewer parameters. Two attention refined blocks are added at the end of the parallel structure, which are composed of light-weight asymmetric convolutions and a triplet attention with almost no parameter, obtaining richer representation information. An unbiased data processing method is also utilized to obtain an accurate flipping result. The experiment is conducted on a macaque dataset containing more than 13,000 pictures. Our network has reached a 77.0 AP score, surpassing HRFormer with fewer parameters by 1.8 AP.
