Research on Multiplayer Posture Estimation Technology of Sports Competition Video Based on Graph Neural Network Algorithm

Abstract

With the explosive growth of the number of sports videos, the traditional sports video analysis method based on manual annotation has been difficult to meet the growing demand because of its high cost and many limitations. The traditional model is usually based on the target detection algorithm of manual features, and the detection of human posture features is not accurate. Compared with global image features such as line features, texture features and structure features, local image features have the characteristics of rich quantity in the image, low correlation between features, and will not affect the detection and matching of other features due to the disappearance of some features in the case of occlusion. Referring to the practice of Deep-ID network considering both local and global features, this paper adjusts the traditional neural network, and combines the improved neural network with the human joint model to form a human pose detection method based on graph neural network, and then applies the algorithm to multiperson human pose estimation. The results of several groups of comparative experiments show that the algorithm can better estimate the human posture in sports competition video, and has a good performance in solving multiperson pose estimation in sports game video.
