Design and Optimization of a Decision Support System for Sports Training Based on Data Mining Technology

Abstract

This paper presents an in-depth study and analysis of sports training decision support systems through data mining techniques, and designs a corresponding sports training decision support system for application in practical situations. It investigates the application of data mining techniques in solving the problem of optimal analysis of sports training indicators. The Apriori algorithm is used to find out the hidden correlations behind the data, while the correlation study applicable to college students’ physical fitness indicators is proposed and practiced, and the potential hidden relationships between the indicator data are found. The analysis results are further verified by the improved AP algorithm, FP algorithm, which provides important opinions for college physical education curriculum reform and youth physical culture development. Then, the Shi-Tomasi algorithm is used for feature point tracking and the support vector machine approach for human motion posture recognition. Considering that the collected action data contain a large amount of stationary action data, a threshold-based action segmentation algorithm is designed to extract useful action segments; after extracting the action segments, common action features are extracted from both statistical features, such as mean, variance, skewness, kurtosis, and physical features, such as acceleration and plantar pressure, to give a specific description of human daily actions. Thus, the fatigue of different postures is judged according to their number of occurrences and a preliminary assessment result is obtained. Then, the surface EMG data collected by the sensors are pre-processed to reduce noise, and the surface EMG signals are fused at the feature level based on the wavelet change algorithm, and the feature vectors are trained with BP neural networks to evaluate the fatigue of human muscle movements and obtain a preliminary evaluation result. Finally, by studying the application of information fusion technology at the decision level, the assessment results of the comprehensive human movement analysis are obtained using D-S evidence theory. In addition, a web platform is built on this basis to display and manage human exercise data and assessment results, and to facilitate the storage and query of historical exercise records.
