poresize

Poresize is a term without a single standard definition, and its meaning varies by domain. It is encountered occasionally in discussions of pose representation, computer graphics, and image processing, where it is sometimes used informally to refer to resizing or scaling pose data.

In computer graphics and animation, poresize may refer to an operation that scales a pose, meaning a skeletal configuration, to fit a different character or scene. This can involve adjusting bone lengths or joint positions while attempting to preserve the pose’s relative orientation and overall structure. The goal is to adapt a pose from one character to another or to accommodate different scene scales without distorting essential motion cues.

In computer vision and motion capture, poresize can denote resizing pose data or keypoints to normalize for camera distance, image resolution, or frame size. This normalization helps downstream models—such as pose estimators, trackers, or classifiers—process data consistently across varied input conditions.

In data formats and software libraries, poresize is not a standardized API or protocol. Its exact meaning, inputs, and outputs depend on the specific toolkit or project’s data model for poses. There is no universally accepted specification, so usage is context-dependent.

Because the term is underspecified, users should refer to the surrounding documentation or project context to understand what poresize means in a given setting. Related concepts include pose estimation, retargeting, skeleton scaling, and data normalization.
