| Resumen: | The sit-and-reach test is a common stretching exercise suitable for adolescents, aimed at improving joint flexibility and somatic neural control, and has become a mandatory item in China’s student physical fitness assessments. However, many students tend to perform incorrect postures during their practice, which may lead to sports injuries such as muscle strains if sustained over time. To address this issue, this paper proposes a Ghost-ST-GCN model for judging the correctness of the sit-and-reach pose. The model first requires detecting seven body keypoints. Leveraging a publicly available labeled keypoint dataset and unlabeled sit-and-reach videos, these keypoints are acquired through the proposed self-train method using the BlazePose network. Subsequently, the keypoints are fed into the Ghost-ST-GCN model, which consists of nine stacked GCN-TCN blocks. Critically, each GCN-TCN layer is embedded with a ghost layer to enhance efficiency. Finally, a classification layer determines the movement’s correctness. Experimental results demonstrate that the self-train method significantly improves the annotation accuracy of the seven keypoints; the integration of ghost layers streamlines the overall detection model; and the system achieves an action detection accuracy of 85.20% for the sit-and-reach exercise, with a response latency of less than 1 s. This approach is highly suitable for guiding adolescents to standardize their movements during independent sit-and-reach practice. |
