چکیده

We present a novel system for gait recognition. Identity recognition and verification are based on the matching of linearly timenormalized gait walking cycles. A novel feature extraction process is also proposed for the transformation of human silhouettes into low-dimensional feature vectors consisting of average pixel distances from the center of the silhouette. By using the best-performing of the proposed methodologies, improvements of 8–20% in recognition and verification performance are seen in comparison to other known methodologies on the “Gait Challenge” database. 2005 Pattern Recognition Society.

Gait Analysis for Human Identification

Human gait is an attractive modality for recognizing people at a distance. In this paper we adopt an appearance-basedapproach to the problem of gait recognition. The width of the outer contour of the binarized silhouette of a walking person is chosen as the basic image feature. Different gait features are extracted from the width vector such as the dowsampled, smoothed width vectors, the veloci...

Integrated Face and Gait Recognition From Multiple Views

We develop a view-normalization approach to multi-view face and gait recognition. An image-based visual hull (IBVH) is computed from a set of monocular views and used to render virtual views for tracking and recognition. We determine canonical viewpoints by examining the 3-D structure, appearance (texture), and motion of the moving person. For optimal face recognition, we place virtual cameras ...

Towards view-invariant gait modeling: Computing view-normalized body part trajectories

This paper proposes an approach to compute view-normalized body part trajectories of pedestrians walking on potentially non-linear paths. The proposed approach finds applications in gait modeling, gait biometrics, and in medical gait analysis. Our approach uses the 2D trajectories of both feet and of the head extracted from the tracked silhouettes. On that basis, it computes the apparent walkin...

Gait Recognition using Encodings with Flexible Similarity Metrics

Gait signals detectable by sensors on ubiquitous personal devices such as smartphones can reveal characteristics unique to each individual, and thereby offer a new approach to recognizing users. Conventional pattern matching approaches use inner-product based distance measures which are not robust to common variations in time-series analysis (e.g., shifts and stretching). This is unfortunate gi...

Time-normalization Techniques for Gait Data

A method commonly used to “time-normalize” gait data (here referred to as linear length normalization [LLN]) is to linearly convert the trajectory’s time axis from the experimentally-recorded time units to an axis representing percentage of the gait cycle. However, other time-normalization techniques are also possible, such as dynamic time warping [DTW] and derivative dynamic time warping [DDTW...
