An Efficient Motion Registration Method Based on Self-Coordination and Self-Referential Normalization

Action quality assessment (AQA) is an important problem in computer vision applications. During human AQA, differences in body size or changes in position relative to the sensor may cause unwanted effects.

Description
Summary:Action quality assessment (AQA) is an important problem in computer vision applications. During human AQA, differences in body size or changes in position relative to the sensor may cause unwanted effects. We propose a motion registration method based on self-coordination (SC) and self-referential normalization (SRN). By establishing a coordinate system on the human body and using a part of the human body as a normalized reference standard to process the raw data, the standardization and distinguishability of the raw data are improved. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, we conducted experiments on KTH datasets. The experimental results show that the method improved the classification accuracy of the KNN-DTW network for KTH-5 from 82.46% to 87.72% and for KTH-4 from 89.47% to 94.74%, and it improved the classification accuracy of the tsai-MiniRocket network for KTH-5 from 91.29% to 93.86% and for KTH-4 from 94.74% to 97.90%. The results show that our method can reduce the above effects and improve the action classification accuracy of the action classification network. This study provides a new method and idea for improving the accuracy of AQA-related algorithms.
