Skeletal Keypoint FAQs

Common questions about our pose estimation annotation services

We support all major keypoint schemas including COCO 17-point, MPII 16-point, OpenPose 18/25-point, MediaPipe 33-point, and custom schemas. Each includes anatomical landmarks like shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. We can also annotate facial keypoints (68-point) and hand keypoints (21-point) for detailed gesture recognition.

Our expert annotators are trained to estimate occluded joint positions based on visible body parts and anatomical constraints. We mark occluded keypoints with visibility flags (visible, occluded, or not visible) so your models can learn to handle partial visibility. For video sequences, we use temporal context from adjacent frames to improve occlusion estimates.

Yes, we specialize in multi-person pose estimation annotation. Each person receives a separate skeleton with unique ID tracking, essential for crowd scenes, sports team analysis, and social interaction studies. We handle challenging scenarios like overlapping people, group activities, and dense crowds while maintaining individual identity tracking.

We achieve 99.5% accuracy for keypoint localization, measured as pixel-level precision within acceptable anatomical constraints. Our multi-layer QA process includes cross-validation between annotators, anatomical consistency checks, and symmetry verification for bilateral joints. We provide confidence scores for each keypoint to indicate annotation certainty.

Yes, we offer temporal pose tracking for video sequences where keypoints are tracked frame-by-frame with consistent IDs. This enables motion analysis, activity recognition, and gesture tracking over time. We can annotate at various frame rates and handle motion blur, rapid movements, and camera motion common in sports and activity videos.

We provide skeletal keypoint annotations in COCO JSON format, OpenPose JSON, MPII format, MediaPipe format, and custom JSON with pixel coordinates, visibility flags, and confidence scores. For video data, we support temporal tracking formats with frame-by-frame keypoint sequences and unique person IDs across frames.
