This invention discloses a method and system for measuring the ratio of long bones in human limbs to height based on images. The method includes steps such as acquiring image sequences, selecting target frames, estimating two-dimensional human pose, predicting the ratio of long bones in limbs to height, labeling potential anomalies, and iterative updates.

If there is a significant difference between the model detection results and the human experience data, it indicates that the model accuracy is insufficient and needs updating. If the number of abnormal individuals in the potential anomaly labeling results exceeds a preset proportion threshold, it indicates that the weighting of the linear relationship between long bones in limbs and height is incorrect. This invention offers convenient measurement, high measurement accuracy, and is unaffected by factors such as age, gender, or race; it is suitable for obese individuals and has good versatility.
