A system for detecting an articulate body pose from an imagery content includes an imaging module for capturing the imagery content, and a processor that is operable to obtain a top-down view of the imagery content, and process the top-down view to detect the articulate body pose using a machine learning algorithm, wherein the articulate body pose includes a plurality of joints. The processing includes creating a part confidence map corresponding to each joint of the articulate body pose, generating a heatmap by projecting the part confidence map on the top-down view of the imagery content, creating a part affinity map corresponding to each body part, generating a vector map by projecting the part affinity map on the top-down view of the imagery content, and generating a body-framework corresponding to the articulate body pose, using the heatmap and the vector map.
