Two-stream convolutional networks for fusing RGB and depth images for hand pose estimation using Lasagne
This is an implementation of the paper On the Fusion of RGB and Depth Information for Hand Pose Estimation. The code is written in python using the Lasagne DL framework.
Dataset
Download the NYU dataset and unzip it. The code is designed to process the data in HDF5 format using h5py. To convert the dataset in HDF5 format run the following code in your terminal:
from datasets_preprocessing.datasets import NYU_Dataset
nyu = NYU_Dataset('/path/NYU/dataset', '/path/NYU/hdf5')
nyu.load_data()
where /path/NYU/ should be replaced with the location of the unziped file from above. In datasets_preprocessing.datasets
, there are also classes for converting to HDF5 the ICVL and MSRA datasets. Only NYU contains RGB-D images, while
ICVL and MSRA contain only depth images, so experiments have been done only for NYU. Nevertheless, you may
want to train just the depth stream for ICVL and MSRA.
