Optimization Method of Human Posture Recognition Based on Kinect V2 Sensor

摘要

Human action recognition aims to understand human behavior and is crucial in enhancing the intelligence and naturalness of human-computer interaction and bionic robots. This paper proposes a method to improve the complexity and real-time performance of action recognition by combining the Kinect sensor with the OpenPose algorithm, the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm, and the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. First, the Kinect V2 depth sensor is used to capture color images, depth images, and 3D skeletal point information from the human body. Next, the color image is processed using OpenPose to extract 2D skeletal point information, which is then mapped to the depth image to obtain 3D skeletal point information. Subsequently, the LM algorithm is employed to fuse the 3D skeletal point sequences with the sequences obtained from Kinect, generating stable 3D skeletal point sequences. Finally, the DTW algorithm is utilized to recognize complex movements. Experimental results across various scenes and actions demonstrate that the method is stable and accurate, achieving an average recognition rate of 95.94%. The method effectively addresses issues, such as jitter and self-occlusion, when Kinect collects skeletal points. The robustness and accuracy of the method make it highly suitable for application in robot interaction systems.
