OpenCE is an open source implementation of the paper Cascaded Pyramid Network for Multi-Person Pose Estimation (CVPR 2018) by Yilun Chen, Zhicheng Wang, Yuxiang Peng, Zhiqiang Zhang, Gang Yu, and Jian Sun. The framework provides a complete training and evaluation pipeline for human pose estimation using a cascaded pyramid network (CPN). OpenCE leverages a feature pyramid structure combined with a refinement stage to improve keypoint detection accuracy across multiple scales, particularly for challenging poses in crowded scenes. The repository includes training scripts, pretrained models, and testing code, allowing users to reproduce results reported in the paper. It supports standard human pose estimation benchmarks such as COCO, with configurations optimized for accuracy and efficiency. As an open resource, OpenCE offers researchers and practitioners a strong baseline for pose estimation and a foundation for extending CPN-based methods.
