Abstract

The present application relates to the technical field of computer vision and biosignal processing, and discloses a swallowing action recognition method and system based on computer vision, which comprises a multi-source perception module, a signal processing and feature extraction module, a multi-modal fusion and decision module, and a risk assessment and feedback module. The system realizes accurate monitoring and risk assessment of swallowing events through multi-source data acquisition such as wide-angle depth imaging, millimeter wave vibration sensing and infrared thermal sensing, combined with time alignment, geometric dynamic characteristic extraction, vibration and thermodynamic analysis. The system adopts a Transformer network for multi-modal fusion, and provides real-time early warning and intervention support through personalized benchmark modeling and dynamic Bayesian inference. The present application can overcome the limitations of single-mode monitoring and is suitable for weak swallowing behavior recognition and safety evaluation in complex environments.
