Advanced machine learning technologies are seldom applied to wearable motion sensor data obtained from sport movements. In this work, we therefore investigated neural networks for motion performance evaluation utilizing a set of inertial sensor-based ski jump measurements. A multi-dimensional convolutional network model that related the motion data under aspects of time, placement and sensor type was implemented. Additionally, its applicability as a measure for automatic motion style judging was evaluated. Results indicate that one multi-dimensional convolutional layer is sufficient to recognize relevant performance error representations. Furthermore, comparisons against a Support Vector Machine and a Hidden Markov Model show that the new model out-performs feature-based methods under noisy and biased data environments. Architectures such as the proposed evaluation system can hence become essential for automatic performance analysis and style judging systems in future.
