SitPose: Real-Time Detection of Sitting Posture and Sedentary Behavior Using Ensemble Learning With Depth Sensor

Abstract-- Poor sitting posture can lead to various work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Office employees spend approximately 81.8% of their working time seated, and sedentary behavior can result in chronic diseases such as cervical spondylosis and cardiovascular diseases. Our results show that the ensemble learning model based on the soft voting mechanism achieves the highest F1 score of 98.1%. Finally, we deployed the SitPose system based on this ensemble model to encourage better sitting posture and to reduce sedentary habits. Office workers typically remain seated throughout their provided insights into the health implications of prolonged workday due to the nature of their tasks and various other sedentary lifestyles. Consequently, many experience backaches, primarily cohort of 360,047 participants from the UK Biobank, delved due to their poor sitting posture and prolonged sedentary into the relationship between sedentary behavior (exceeding 6 habits. Furthermore, prolonged sitting can aims to mitigate such risks by introducing a novel double the risk of developing diabetes, as well as contribute to sitting posture health detection system that utilizes visual the accumulation of abdominal fat, leading to health problems detection technology to provide interactive reminders. The RoSeFi [5] system between increased durations of sedentary behavior in adopted WiFi channel state information to monitor sedentary the workplace and a decline in self-reported general health status.
