Our implementation uses skeletal data from the RGB-D (RGB + Depth) Kinect v2 sensor and works without putting non-sensor related constraints such as specific view an-gles or distance to the system. Our approach is intended to be part of a robust and easy-to-use feedback system for CPR training, allowing its unsupervised training. We compare the sensitivity of our DE implementation with data recorded by a Laerdal Resusci Anne mannequin. Results show that the frequency of the DE-based CPR is recognized with a variance of {\^A}{\textpm}4.4 bpm (4.1\%) in comparison to the reference of the Resusci Anne mannequin.}, keywords = {Cardiac Massage, CPR training, Curve Fitting, Evolutionary Algorithm, UNIAMT, UNILLM}, isbn = {978-989-758-281-3}, doi = {10.5220/0006732806650670}, url = {http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/Link.aspx?doi=10.5220/0006732806650670}, author = {Lins, Christian and Klausen, Andreas and Fudickar, Sebastian and Hellmers, Sandra and Lipprandt, Myriam and R{\"o}hrig, Rainer and Hein, Andreas} }
