Smart trainer: Combining video analysis and deep learning for efficient and accurate gym exercise classification and form correction.

The paper proposes a novel approach for recognizing and classifying gym exercises using human pose detection with Mediapipe and LSTM, followed by matching the accuracy of the exercises using the Hungarian algorithm and cosine similarity. The proposed approach involves the use of a combination of cutting-edge technologies, including computer vision and deep learning, to recognize and classify a range of gym exercises accurately and efficiently. This study presents several advantages of this approach, including the ability to leverage temporal information, robustness to variations in lighting, camera angle, and occlusions, and the ability to handle a wide variety of gym exercises. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves high accuracy and outperforms existing methods for gym exercise recognition and classification. The paper also compares the proposed approach with existing techniques, highlighting its strengths and cost-effectiveness. It concludes by outlining the methodology, including dataset collection and pre-processing, landmark extraction, LSTM model training, exercise classification, and similarity analysis. Finally, the paper discusses potential future research areas in this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
