AI-Driven Tai Chi mastery using deep learning framework for movement assessment and personalized training

This paper presents a novel system for optimizing Tai Chi movement training using computer vision and deep learning technologies. We developed a comprehensive framework incorporating multi-view pose estimation, temporal feature extraction, and real-time movement assessment to address the challenges of traditional Tai Chi instruction. The system employs spatial-temporal graph convolutional networks enhanced with attention mechanisms for accurate movement evaluation, combined with personalized feedback generation through augmented reality and multi-modal interfaces. Validation experiments with 120 participants across different skill levels demonstrated 42% faster skill acquisition and 28.5% greater improvement in movement quality compared to traditional training methods. The system achieved 92.8% accuracy in error detection and maintained high user satisfaction ratings across all experience levels. Our approach successfully bridges ancient wisdom with modern technology, providing scalable, standardized instruction while preserving the cultural essence of Tai Chi practice.

Abstract

This paper presents a novel system for optimizing Tai Chi movement training using computer vision and deep learning technologies. We developed a comprehensive framework incorporating multi-view pose estimation, temporal feature extraction, and real-time movement assessment to address the challenges of traditional Tai Chi instruction. The system employs spatial-temporal graph convolutional networks enhanced with attention mechanisms for accurate movement evaluation, combined with personalized feedback generation through augmented reality and multi-modal interfaces. Validation experiments with 120 participants across different skill levels demonstrated 42% faster skill acquisition and 28.5% greater improvement in movement quality compared to traditional training methods. The system achieved 92.8% accuracy in error detection and maintained high user satisfaction ratings across all experience levels. Our approach successfully bridges ancient wisdom with modern technology, providing scalable, standardized instruction while preserving the cultural essence of Tai Chi practice.
