Pose Estimation Analyst

At leadlife we offer customers a wide amount of medical analysis including DNA analysis, blood analysis, exercise test and more. We do not diagnose disease but focus on prevention by applying a healthy lifestyle.

Description of the Internship

One of the tests we offer at leadlife is a functional movement screening. For now this test is screened by a professional, but we want to provide a more objective scoring to the movements that are executed by using an existing pose estimation technology called D-WALL. With the pose estimation data received from D-WALL , exercise movements (e.g. a squat movement) should be mapped to a score.

Pre-requisites

The student should be able to do basic analysis of data in python, e.g. using the pandas library.

What the student will learn

The student will improve their data analysis skills in python and gets introduced into the world of pose estimation (computer vision). There will be collaboration with different parties like the D-WALL provider and the leadlife performance coach. The student will therefore learn aspects of product development other than working with data itself.

The student will have have a large degree of freedom in finding solutions and planning of the workload. This freedom will require the student to take some ownership and not be to passive in communication. Communication and reporting of findings is an important skill and the student will be guided and learn how to approach this.

Team and environment at the company

The student will work closest with the data scientist of leadlife (Nick), whom will help the student with the communication to other parties and analysis of the data. Performance coach of leadlife (Seppe) has the domain knowledge of the exercise scores and will help to find solutions to do the mapping. The student will also report results to the head of science at leadlife (Evelyn), with guidance of Nick.
