"""Measure the video<->SMPL-X frame offset EMPIRICALLY. Never assume it.
Why this exists
The DEGAS captures were first tracked assuming `GT frame = video frame + 1`. That
offset had been measured on a near-static frame, where every candidate looks alike,
and it was wrong. A one-frame error is nearly invisible in a still overlay but
poisons every downstream avatar. So the offset is now MEASURED, on motion, before a
capture is published.
Method (needs no SMPL-X model, only what the dataset ships)
The discriminating signal is the FAST-MOVING HAND against the ALPHA MATTE.
A forearm is only ~40-80 px wide, and during a gesture the wrist moves tens of px
per frame, so a projected wrist lands inside the silhouette at the correct offset and
outside it one frame away. Slow signals (body centroid) cannot resolve +-1 frame and
will happily report nonsense with a margin of ~0.01; that weak-signal trap is exactly
what produced the original wrong +1, so this script refuses to answer when the margin
is small.
1. Rank fit frames by projected 2D WRIST SPEED; keep the fastest ones.
2. Decode a contiguous low-res window of the ALPHA half (right 2048) of each camera.
3. For each candidate offset d, measure the fraction of hand/wrist joints that land
on foreground at video frame (fit_frame + d).
4. Report argmax, plus the margin. A margin below --min-margin is INCONCLUSIVE and
exits non-zero rather than guessing.
Usage
python verify_alignment.py data/P1C1 --cams 6 12 --start 1300 --count 250
python verify_alignment.py data/P1C1 --expect 0 # non-zero exit if it differs
