Numerous people are interested in learning yoga due to the increased tension levels in the modern lifestyle, and there are a variety of techniques or resources available. Yoga is practiced in yoga centers, by personal instructors, and through books, the Internet, recorded videos, etc. As the aforementioned resources may not always be available, a large number of people will opt for self-study in fast-paced lifestyles. Self-learning makes it impossible to recognize an incorrect posture. Incorrect poses will have a negative effect on the patient’s health, causing severe agony and long-term chronic issues. Computer vision (CV)-related techniques derive pose features and conduct pose analysis using non-invasive CV methods. The application of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to an inter-disciplinary field like yoga becomes quite difficult. Due to its potent feature learning ability, deep learning (DL) has recently achieved an impressive level of performance in classifying yoga poses. In this paper, an artificial algae optimizer with hybrid deep learning-based yoga pose estimation (AAOHDL-YPE) model is presented. The presented AAOHDL-YPE model analyzes yoga video clips to estimate pose. Utilizing Part Confidence Map and Part Affinity Field with bipartite equivalent and parsing, OpenPose can be employed to determine the joint location. The deep belief network (DBN) model is then used for Yoga recognition. Finally, the AAO algorithm is utilized to enhance the EfficientNet model’s recognition performance. The results of a comprehensive experimentation analysis reveal that the AAOHDL-YPE technique produces superior results in comparison to existing methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
