We propose the Waterfall Transformer architecture for Pose estimation (WTPose), a single-pass, end-to-end trainable framework designed for multi-person pose estimation. Our framework leverages a transformer-based waterfall module that generates multi-scale feature maps from various backbone stages. The module performs filtering in the cascade architecture to expand the receptive fields and to capture local and global context, therefore increasing the overall feature representation capability of the network. Our experiments on the COCO dataset demonstrate that the proposed WTPose architecture, with a modified Swin backbone and transformer-based waterfall module, outperforms other transformer architectures for multi-person pose estimation
