Student’s Health Exercise Recognition Tool for E-Learning Education

Abstract

Due to the recently increased requirements of e-learning systems, multiple educational institutes such as kindergarten have transformed their learning towards virtual education. Automated student health exercise is a difficult task but an important one due to the physical education needs especially in young learners. The proposed system focuses on the necessary implementation of student health exercise recognition (SHER) using a modified Quaternion-based filter for inertial data refining and data fusion as the pre-processing steps. Further, cleansed data has been segmented using an overlapping windowing approach followed by patterns identification in the form of static and kinematic signal patterns. Furthermore, these patterns have been utilized to extract cues for both patterned signals, which are further optimized using Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis (FLDA) technique. Finally, the physical exercise activities have been categorized using extended Kalman filter (EKF)-based neural networks. This system can be implemented in multiple educational establishments including intelligent training systems, virtual mentors, smart simulations, and interactive learning management methods.
