Как считается эта оценка

Складывается из проверяемых признаков самой записи: есть ли у статьи DOI, сколько независимых источников подтвердили её данные, заполнены ли обязательные поля и насколько свежо последнее подтверждение. Снижают оценку расхождения между источниками и отсутствие идентификатора. Значение от 80 означает, что запись опубликована без дополнительной проверки; от 60 до 79 — что она опубликована с пониженной достоверностью и ручная проверка желательна. Запись, выверенную редактором вручную, пересчёт не опускает ниже 90. Это оценка наших данных о статье, а не оценка самой статьи.

Аннотация

Real-time human movement analysis has become an essential component of modern computer vision applications, including sports performance assessment, rehabilitation monitoring, intelligent surveillance, and human–computer interaction. Although deep learning–based pose estimation methods provide accurate human body landmark detection, executing person detection on every video frame introduces considerable computational overhead, limiting their applicability on resource-constrained CPU-based systems. This paper proposes an efficient YOLO–ROI framework for real-time human movement analysis that combines scheduled YOLO person detection, region-of-interest (ROI) generation, MediaPipe Pose estimation, and lightweight landmark smoothing. Instead of performing object detection on every frame, the proposed framework periodically executes the YOLO detector while reusing the most recently detected ROI between detection cycles. Consequently, MediaPipe Pose continuously estimates body landmarks within the ROI, significantly reducing redundant object detection operations and improving computational efficiency. The proposed framework was evaluated using a self-collected dataset consisting of 200 videos recorded from 10 participants performing five physical exercises under controlled indoor conditions. Computational performance was analyzed under different ROI sizes, detection intervals, and MediaPipe Pose complexity levels using CPU-based execution. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed optimization strategy achieves a maximum processing speed of 61.32 FPS with an average processing latency of 16.31 ms, enabling stable real-time operation without GPU acceleration. The obtained results further show that scheduled YOLO detection, ROI reuse, and lightweight landmark smoothing effectively reduce computational workload while preserving continuous pose estimation throughout video processing. The proposed framework provides a simple, computationally efficient, and easily deployable solution for real-time human movement analysis and can be readily integrated into sports analytics, rehabilitation systems, intelligent surveillance applications, and edge-based computer vision platforms.
