A human subject is tracked within a scene of an observed depth image supplied to a pose tracking pipeline. An indication of a problem state is received from the pose tracking pipeline, and an identification of the problem state is supplied to the pose tracking pipeline. A virtual skeleton is received from the pose tracking pipeline that includes a plurality of skeletal points defined in three-dimensions. The pose tracking pipeline selects a three-dimensional position of at least one of the plurality of skeletal points in accordance with the identification of the problem state supplied to the pose-tracking pipeline.
