We aim to provide a unified evaluation tools to support multiple human pose-related datasets, including COCO, COCO-WholeBody, CrowdPose, AI Challenger and so on.

We provide a simple demo_crowdpose to evaluate on CrowdPose dataset; demo_coco to evaluate on COCO dataset; and demo_coco_wholebody to evaluate on COCO-WholeBody dataset;
