Athletes' Action Recognition and Posture Estimation Algorithm Based on Image Processing Technology

Abstract

A posture estimation algorithm based on image processing technology involves analyzing images or video frames to determine the position and orientation of human bodies or specific body parts. This process typically begins with detecting key points or landmarks on the body, such as joints or anatomical features. This paper presents a novel approach for athletes' action recognition and posture estimation using image processing technology, specifically focusing on the Contour Mapping Multivariant Recognition and Estimation (CMMRE) algorithm. The primary objective is to develop a robust system capable of accurately identifying human actions and estimating postures from visual data, with potential applications in sports analysis, surveillance, and human-computer interaction. The CMMRE algorithm employs advanced techniques for contour mapping, feature extraction, and prediction, leveraging deep learning methodologies to analyze and interpret visual information effectively. Through a series of experiments and simulations, the algorithm's performance is evaluated, showcasing its ability to achieve high accuracy in action recognition tasks across various scenarios. The results highlight the algorithm's strengths in accurately predicting actions and estimating postures, while also identifying areas for improvement. The algorithm achieved an average accuracy of 95% in recognizing walking and running actions, and 80% in identifying jumping actions. The results highlight the algorithm's strengths in accurately predicting actions and estimating postures, while also identifying areas for improvement.
