Automatic scoring in fencing by using skeleton points extracted from images

First time spectators of fencing competitions cannot understand the complicated rules, making it difficult for them to enjoy the game. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a system that detects the situation of a fencing match using skeleton points extracted from videos. Players cannot be equipped with sensors or other devices to prevent interference with the match. Consequently, this research proposes a system that detects "phrases" using skeleton point information extracted from videos and displays the game situation. We evaluate actual videos of fencing to confirm the performance.
