Abstract

A skeleton recognition device includes one or more memories; and one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and the one or more processors configured to: acquire an output result by inputting teacher data to a training model and processing forward propagation, the teacher data having skeleton information that indicates positions of a plurality of bones of a human as a correct answer value, acquire a value of a loss function based on a difference in a bone length and a difference in an angle between the plurality of bones, the bone length and the angle being based on the skeleton information and the output result, and adjust parameters of the training model based on the value of the loss function.
