Towards in-the-wild Egocentric 3D Hand-Object Pose Estimation arxiv.org
AI Weekly's analysis →
  • EPIC-Contact provides 2.3K clips and 62.3K frames of in-the-wild egocentric footage with dense, bijective 3D hand-object contact correspondences and posed meshes.
  • HOPformer is an end-to-end transformer that jointly predicts bi-manual hand and object pose in a single forward pass using a cross-attention decoder.
  • The model reaches 82.4% success rate on ARCTIC, 6.2 points above prior state of the art, and nearly doubles success rate on EPIC-Contact while cutting contact deviation by 75%.
