MPII Human Pose

Introduced by Mykhaylo Andriluka et al. in 2D Human Pose Estimation: New Benchmark and State of the Art Analysis1 Jan 2014 archive 2025-07-28

MPII Human Pose Dataset is a dataset for human pose estimation. It consists of around 25k images extracted from online videos. Each image contains one or more people, with over 40k people annotated in total. Among the 40k samples, ∼28k samples are for training and the remainder are for testing. Overall the dataset covers 410 human activities and each image is provided with an activity label. Images were extracted from a YouTube video and provided with preceding and following un-annotated frames.

30 shown of 41 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 143. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
