Pose Interpolation & Smoothing Module (A12)
============================================
Provides robust smoothing strategies for pose-estimation keypoint sequences,
eliminating jitter, filling detection gaps, and removing outlier spikes
to produce clean animations.
Supported strategies
--------------------
- ``moving_average`` Box-car (sliding window) average
- ``gaussian`` Gaussian-weighted convolution
- ``exponential`` Exponential moving average (EMA) – usable online
- ``median`` Median filter – excellent against isolated spikes
- ``savitzky_golay`` Savitzky-Golay filter – preserves signal shape
- ``kalman`` 1-D constant-velocity Kalman filter (online)
- ``spline`` Cubic-spline interpolation through high-confidence
points, discarding outliers
- ``hybrid`` (Default) Outlier detection → interpolation →
Savitzky-Golay smoothing
Data formats
------------
The module accepts two common representations:
1. **App‑style list of dicts** (from ``app.py`` ``all_keypoints``):
.. code:: python
[
{
"poses": [{
"keypoints": [
{"x": 0.5, "y": 0.3, "score": 0.92, "name": "nose"},
...
]
}],
"frame_id": 0, ...
},
...
]
2. **NumPy array** with shape ``(frames, joints, 3)`` where the last axis
holds ``[x, y, confidence]``.
Basic usage
-----------
.. code:: python
from A12.pose_interpolator import PoseInterpolator, smooth_pose_sequence
# High-level convenience (recommended)
smoothed = smooth_pose_sequence(all_keypoints, strategy="hybrid")
# Low-level API
interp = PoseInterpolator(strategy="kalman", process_noise=0.001,
measurement_noise=0.05)
arr = interp.keypoints_to_array(all_keypoints)
smoothed_arr = interp.fit_transform(arr)

Passed through to :class:`PoseInterpolator` (window_size,
alpha, outlier_threshold, …).
Returns
-------
list of dict
Deep copy of *frames_data* with smoothed (x, y) coordinates.
Examples
--------
>>> # Quick hybrid smoothing (recommended for animations)
>>> smoothed = smooth_pose_sequence(all_keypoints, strategy="hybrid")
>>> # Light EMA for near-real-time use
>>> smoothed = smooth_pose_sequence(all_keypoints, strategy="exponential",
... alpha=0.15)
>>> # Strong outlier removal for noisy recordings
>>> smoothed = smooth_pose_sequence(all_keypoints, strategy="hybrid",
... outlier_method="zscore",
... outlier_threshold=2.5,
... window_size=7)
