This paper proposes a system for pose estimation on monkeys, in diverse and challenging scenarios, and under complex social interactions by using OpenPose. In comparison to most animals used for research, Monkeys present additional difficulties for pose estimation. Multiple degrees of freedom, unique complex postures, intricated social interactions, among others. Our monkey OpenPose trained model is robust against these difficulties. It achieves similar performance as in human pose estimation models, and it can run in Realtime.
