Claims that choreography can be encoded as a directed graph with nodes holding photos of poses and edges as transitions, and that a DFA can generate or validate pose sequences; implements this with networkx and matplotlib plus image loading (PIL) to put images as node labels, and uses an automata library to run input strings over states. Works for a small set (three poses demonstrated), produces valid sequences but lacks automated pose detection and scales with manual labeling.
