contents Current millimeter-wave (mmWave) datasets for human pose estimation (HPE) are scarce and lack diversity in both point cloud (PC) attributes and human poses, hindering the generalization ability of their trained models. On the other hand, unlabeled mmWave HPE data and diverse LiDAR HPE datasets are readily available. We propose EMDUL, a novel approach to expand the volume and diversity of an existing mmWave dataset using unlabeled mmWave data and LiDAR datasets. EMDUL consists of two independent modules, namely a pseudo-label estimator to annotate unlabeled mmWave data, and a closed-form converter that translates an annotated LiDAR PC to its mmWave counterpart. Expanding the original dataset with both LiDAR-converted and pseudo-labeled mmWave PCs significantly boosts the performance and generalization ability of all the examined HPE models, reducing 15.1% and 18.9% error for in-domain and out-of-domain settings, respectively. Code is available at https://github.com/Shimmer93/EMDUL.
