1st Place Solution of Egocentric 3D Hand Pose Estimation Challenge 2023 Technical Report:A Concise Pipeline for Egocentric Hand Pose Reconstruction

This report introduce our work on Egocentric 3D Hand Pose Estimation workshop. Using AssemblyHands, this challenge focuses on egocentric 3D hand pose estimation from a single-view image. In the competition, we adopt ViT based backbones and a simple regressor for 3D keypoints prediction, which provides strong model baselines. We noticed that Hand-objects occlusions and self-occlusions lead to performance degradation, thus proposed a non-model method to merge multi-view results in the post-process stage. Moreover, We utilized test time augmentation and model ensemble to make further improvement. We also found that public dataset and rational preprocess are beneficial. Our method achieved 12.21mm MPJPE on test dataset, achieve the first place in Egocentric 3D Hand Pose Estimation challenge.

SimpleDG: Simple Domain Generalization Baseline without Bells and Whistles

We present a simple domain generalization baseline, which wins second place in both the common context generalization track and the hybrid context generalization track respectively in NICO CHALLENGE 2022. We verify the founding in recent literature, domainbed, that ERM is a strong baseline compared to recent state-of-the-art domain generalization methods and propose SimpleDG which includes several simple yet effective designs that further boost generalization performance.
