## Abstract (arXiv)

In the rapidly advancing domain of computer vision, accurately estimating the poses of multiple individuals from various viewpoints remains a significant challenge, especially when reliability is a key requirement. This paper introduces a novel algorithm that excels in multi-view, multi-person pose estimation by incorporating depth information. An extensive evaluation demonstrates that the proposed algorithm not only generalizes well to unseen datasets, and shows a fast runtime performance, but also is adaptable to different keypoints. To support further research, all of the work is publicly accessible.
