Novel approach of human object posture detection for volleyball videos based on YOLO & high-resolution deep learning
摘要
Novel human object posture detection method for volleyball videos based on YOLO (You Only Look Once) & high-resolution deep learning is put forth. The network of YOLO is realized by lightweighted GhostNet network and CBAM (Convolutional Block Attention Module). The high-resolution deep learning is designed for light-weighting, which significantly improves the performance and efficiency of the human object posture estimation model and enables multi-person posture estimation. The neck is used as the central point to establish a coordinate system for preprocessing, and proportions are adjusted to quantify numerical values such as action angles and speeds, which are then utilized to evaluate the quality of players’ actions. The Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm is employed to compare players’ actions with preset actions and analyze the results of action quality. Experimental results on the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPII) and Common Objects in Context (COCO) datasets, as well as genuine volleyball match videos, indicate that the proposed algorithm retains a high degree of human posture estimation accuracy while substantially reducing the number of parameters and computational demands compared to the original model. Our method not only is suitable for volleyball videos as the main application scenario, but also it can be extended to other sports or to multi-object dense scenes.
