The invention provides a low-complexity
human body motion reconstruction method based on a sparse
inertial measurement unit, and belongs to the technical field of
virtual reality and three-dimensional
human body motion reconstruction, and the method comprises the following steps: obtaining a
data set required for reconstruction training based on
human body postures, carrying out time modeling through a
time sequence encoder, updating joint features on a human body
skeleton graph, and obtaining a reconstruction result; a skeleton is divided into a
trunk and four limbs according to a human anatomical structure, global rotation of a root joint and local rotation of each joint are respectively predicted by a partition
kinematics regression head, low-rank
decomposition is introduced into a large-scale
linear layer to compress
model parameters, and
forward kinematics is utilized to recover three-dimensional joint positions of the
whole body. In the training process, a two-stage teacher-student
distillation model framework is adopted, a teacher network is trained through real labels, and then
joint rotation and joint positions output by a teacher are used as soft targets to jointly restrain a student network through rotary
distillation and position
distillation. While the parameter quantity is reduced, the reconstruction precision and the motion smoothness of the
whole body are improved.
