Skeleton-based action recognition models are effective for this issue, while the existing human skeletal structures and detection frameworks are inadequate for this task. To address these challenges, a novel human skeletal structure aligned with the essence of TCC is proposed, along with a dataset with 2400 annotated images covering fundamental TCC movements. Furthermore, a module named Waist and Limbs Feature Separation (WLFS) is proposed for structured modeling. Based on the spatiotemporal characteristics of TCC movements, the WLFS module explicitly separates keypoints into dynamic and static categories channel-wise. Subsequently, two exclusive GAUs are applied to the static and dynamic regions respectively. This strategy enables the network to learn the distinct features of the separated categories regions, and accelerates the convergence of the network weights during the training process. To preserve the fine-scale features of TCC keypoints in the downsampling, a Multi-Scale Feature Fusion (MSFF) module is integrated into WLFS, which fuses the different spatial resolution feature maps to enhance feature representation of the model at small scales. Experiments on the custom dataset (Tai Chi) and public datasets (MPII, COCO-WholeBody V1.0, Animal Pose, and AP-10K) demonstrate that the proposed method achieves competitive performance and good generalization ability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49521,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing-Image Communication","volume":"141 ","pages":"Article 117439"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145625286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Challenges inevitably arise when the scene is non-planar and captured by handheld cameras since parallax is non-negligible in such cases. In this paper, we propose a novel image stitching method using depth maps, which generates accurate alignment mosaics against parallax. Firstly, we construct a robust fitting method to filter out the outliers in feature matches and estimate the epipolar geometry between input images. Then, we utilize epipolar geometry to establish pixel-to-pixel correspondences between the input images and render the warped images using the proposed optimal warping. In the rendering stage, we introduce several modules to solve the mapping artifacts in the warping results and generate the final mosaic. Experimental results on three challenging datasets demonstrate that the depth maps of input images enable our method to provide much more accurate alignment in the overlapping region and view-consistent results in the non-overlapping region.

However, recent captioning models trained on the MS-COCO Caption dataset perform well only in English language patterns; they do not perform as effectively in describing contexts specific to Vietnam or in generating fluent Vietnamese captions.

Moreover, the role of gradient information and negative image features in denoising is often overlooked, limiting the ability to capture fine structures.
