Preliminary Studies and Prototypes for Machine Learning Based Evaluation of Surfers’ Performance on River Waves
摘要
In this paper we are describing our preliminary studies and prototypes for evaluating a surfer’s performance on a stationary wave. We are briefly describing the sport’s environment and development and the current state-of-the-art of machine learning based single camera tracking approaches we have evaluated and applied. The main part of the paper deals with the first implementation, the tracking and the results of the evaluation of the movements of two surfers. We are closing with our lessons learned and our next steps.
