Enhancing GAN-Based Motion Data Augmentation Through Dynamic Time Warping Distance Filtering.

Motion capture data is crucial but creating a large dataset can be challenging due to complexities in acquisition. Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-based motion data augmentation offers a potential solution to this issue. However, GANs often struggle with learning from limited data, resulting in poor quality output. In this study, we propose a Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) filtering method that filters out generated data significantly deviating from real-world examples. Through this approach, we have achieved an improvement in the fidelity of the generated data, even with dataset size constraints, as evidenced by an increase in action recognition accuracy.
