Domain Transfer-Based Hypergraph Convolutional Network for Posture Anomaly Detection in Physical Education Teaching

Human skeleton-based posture anomaly detection has been widely applied in the field of physical education teaching. The existing spatio-temporal graph convolutional networks (ST-GCN) can fully utilize the local and global information of the human skeleton for action recognition, but the entire model requires a large amount of computation and the modeling of high-order relationships between joint points of the human skeleton is insufficient. To this end, this paper proposes a novel domain adaptive hypergraph convolutional network for basketball posture anomaly analysis by exploiting 2D skeleton information. First, we designed an effective hypergraph convolution feature extraction network to improve the high-order dependency modeling. To further improve the performance of the hypergraph convolutional network, we introduce domain adaptive learning technology to supervise the feature extraction learning of the target domain (2D skeleton) through the source domain (3D skeleton). At last, we construct a basketball action teaching analysis dataset for model evaluation. We conducted a large number of comparative experiments on the public dataset NTU RGB+D and our self-built dataset. All the results showed that our proposed hypergraph convolutional model effectively extracts features of 2D human skeletons, and by introducing domain adaptive learning, the performance of basketball anomaly detection is further improved.
