Pose estimation is a task that involves identifying the location of specific points in an image, usually referred
to as keypoints. The keypoints can represent various parts of the object such as joints, landmarks, or other distinctive
features. The locations of the keypoints are usually represented as a set of 2D `[x, y]` or 3D `[x, y, visible]`
coordinates.

The output of a pose estimation model is a set of points that represent the keypoints on an object in the image, usually
along with the confidence scores for each point. Pose estimation is a good choice when you need to identify specific
parts of an object in a scene, and their location in relation to each other.
!!! tip "Tip"
YOLOv8 _pose_ models use the `-pose` suffix, i.e. `yolov8n-pose.pt`. These models are trained on the [COCO keypoints](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/datasets/coco-pose.yaml) dataset and are suitable for a variety of pose estimation tasks.
## [Models](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/tree/main/ultralytics/models/v8)
YOLOv8 pretrained Pose models are shown here. Detect, Segment and Pose models are pretrained on
the [COCO](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/datasets/coco.yaml) dataset, while Classify
models are pretrained on
the [ImageNet](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/datasets/ImageNet.yaml) dataset.

## Train
Train a YOLOv8-pose model on the COCO128-pose dataset.
!!! example ""
=== "Python"
```python
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load a model
model = YOLO('yolov8n-pose.yaml') # build a new model from YAML
model = YOLO('yolov8n-pose.pt') # load a pretrained model (recommended for training)
model = YOLO('yolov8n-pose.yaml').load('yolov8n-pose.pt') # build from YAML and transfer weights
# Train the model
model.train(data='coco8-pose.yaml', epochs=100, imgsz=640)
```
=== "CLI"
```bash
# Build a new model from YAML and start training from scratch
yolo pose train data=coco8-pose.yaml model=yolov8n-pose.yaml epochs=100 imgsz=640
# Start training from a pretrained *.pt model
yolo pose train data=coco8-pose.yaml model=yolov8n-pose.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640
# Build a new model from YAML, transfer pretrained weights to it and start training
yolo pose train data=coco8-pose.yaml model=yolov8n-pose.yaml pretrained=yolov8n-pose.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640
```
## Val
Validate trained YOLOv8n-pose model accuracy on the COCO128-pose dataset. No argument need to passed as the `model`
retains it's
training `data` and arguments as model attributes.
!!! example ""
=== "Python"
```python
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load a model
model = YOLO('yolov8n-pose.pt') # load an official model
model = YOLO('path/to/best.pt') # load a custom model
# Validate the model
metrics = model.val() # no arguments needed, dataset and settings remembered
metrics.box.map # map50-95
metrics.box.map50 # map50
metrics.box.map75 # map75
metrics.box.maps # a list contains map50-95 of each category
```
=== "CLI"
```bash
yolo pose val model=yolov8n-pose.pt # val official model
yolo pose val model=path/to/best.pt # val custom model

```bash
yolo pose predict model=yolov8n-pose.pt source='https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg' # predict with official model
yolo pose predict model=path/to/best.pt source='https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg' # predict with custom model
```

## Export
