Abstract

Human often cross their legs unconsciously while sitting, which can lead to issues like shifting the center of gravity, lower back pain, decreased blood flow and pelvic distortion. Detecting unconscious leg-crossing is important for maintaining correct posture. In this study, we explored the detection of leg-crossing postures using machine learning on data from body pressure distribution sensors. Collected 180 seconds of pressure data from 4 male subjects (25.8 ± 6.29 y.o.) in three conditions: no leg crossing, right leg crossed, and left leg crossed. Seven classifiers, including SVM and RF, were evaluated using Accuracy, Recall, Precision, and Specificity. As a result, SVM was difficult to classify.
