Abstract

The field of medical monitoring might greatly benefit from development of wearable optical fibre sensors. Development of wearable optical fibre sensors is progressively satisfying the need for new medical monitoring devices to be more small, comfortable, accurate, and have other capabilities. Since the idea of high-quality education was introduced, society has paid close attention to the athletic endeavours of pupils. Therefore, it is an irreversible tendency to identify sports injuries. Sports injuries among students during sports have also raised widespread concern. Purpose of this project is to use ML approaches to provide player injury and mobility assessments based on optical sensors. Here, the player’s movement and the injury are analysed by the optical wearable sensor. Then this sensed data is classified using hybrid vector adversarial reinforcement perceptron neural networks (HVARPNN). The experimental analysis is carried out in terms of prediction accuracy, precision, MSE, AUC and F-1 score for various player analysis based dataset. The validation findings show that the system can reliably detect collisions with extremely few false positives and false negatives.
