A body and hand association method includes: an image to be detected of which an image content includes a body and a hand is acquired; a body bounding box of the body and a hand bounding box of the hand are determined in the image to be detected; an association probability between the body bounding box and the hand bounding box is determined; a circumscribed box of the body bounding box and the hand bounding box is determined; and a degree of association between the body and hand in the circumscribed box is determined based on a hand key point in the circumscribed box and the association probability.
