Three-dimensional human body curve-skeleton is widely used in pose estimation, skeleton animation and other fields. This paper proposes an improved ℓ1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\ell _1$$\end{document} median model that can extract three-dimensional human body curve-skeleton. The model includes three-dimensional human body reconstruction from multi-view images, interpolation curve-skeleton extraction, ℓ1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\ell _1$$\end{document} median skeleton completion, and continuous frame curve-skeleton optimization. Through the completion and optimization processes, the curve-skeleton we extract is smoother and more complete compared with previous methods. We conduct experiments on multi-view human body image dataset collected from light field acquisition system. Both quantitative and qualitative results demonstrate the effectiveness of our model.
