Gait recognition can identify people's identity from a long distance, which is very important for improving the intelligence of the monitoring system. Among many human features, gait features have the advantages of being remotely available, robust, and secure. Traditional gait feature extraction, affected by the development of behavior recognition, can only rely on manual feature extraction, which cannot meet the needs of fine gait recognition. The emergence of deep convolutional neural networks has made researchers get rid of complex feature design engineering, and can automatically learn available features through data, which has been widely used. In this paper,conduct feature metric learning in the three-dimensional space by combining the three-dimensional convolution features of the gait sequence and the Siamese structure. This method can capture the information of spatial dimension and time dimension from the continuous periodic gait sequence, and further improve the accuracy and practicability of gait recognition.

Identification of humans from multiple view points is an important task for surveillance and security purposes. For optimal performance the system should use the maximum information available from sensors. Multimodal biometric systems are capable of utilizing more than one physiological or behavioral characteristic for enrollment, verification, or identification. Since gait alone is not yet established as a very distinctive feature, this paper presents an approach to fuse face and gait for identification. In this paper we will use the single camera case i.e. both the face and gait recognition is done using the same set of images captured by a single camera. The aim of this paper is to improve the performance of the system by utilizing the maximum amount of information available in the images. Fusion is considered at decision level. The proposed algorithm is tested on the NLPR database.

Mobile authentication/identification has grown into a priority issue nowadays because of its existing outdated mechanisms, such as PINs or passwords. In this paper, we introduce gait recognition by using a mobile accelerometer as not only effective but also as an implicit identification model. Unlike previous works, the gait recognition only performs well with a particular mobile specification (e.g., a fixed sampling rate). Our work focuses on constructing a unique adaptive mechanism that could be independently deployed with the specification of mobile devices. To do this, the impact of the sampling rate on the preprocessing steps, such as noise elimination, data segmentation, and feature extraction, is examined in depth. Moreover, the degrees of agreement between the gait features that were extracted from two different mobiles, including both the Average Error Rate (AER) and Intra-class Correlation Coefficients (ICC), are assessed to evaluate the possibility of constructing a device-independent mechanism. We achieved the classification accuracy approximately $91.33{\pm}0.67%$ for both devices, which showed that it is feasible and reliable to construct adaptive cross-device gait recognition on a mobile phone.

Humans are able to recognize small number of people they know well by the way they walk. This ability represents basic motivation for using human gait as the means for biometric identification. Such biometric can be captured at public places from a distance without subject's collaboration, awareness or even consent. Although current approaches give encouraging results, we are still far from effective use in practical applications. In general, methods set various constraints to circumvent the influence factors like changes of view, walking speed, capture environment, clothing, footwear, object carrying, that have negative impact on recognition results. In this paper we investigate the influence of walking speed variation to different visual based gait recognition approaches and propose normalization based on geometric transformations, which mitigates its influence on recognition results. With the evaluation on MoBo gait dataset we demonstrate the benefits of using such normalization in combination with different types of gait recognition approaches.

In this paper, we propose a gait-based human identification system using eigenfeature regularization and extraction (ERE). First, a gait feature for human identification which is called gait energy image (GEI) is generated from walking sequences acquired from a camera sensor. In training phase, regularized transformation matrix is obtained by applying ERE to the gallery GEI dataset, and the gallery GEI dataset is projected onto the eigenspace to obtain galley features. In testing phase, the probe GEI dataset is projected onto the eigenspace created in training phase and determine the identity by using a nearest neighbor classifier. Experiments are carried out on the CASIA gait dataset A to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. Experimental results show that the proposed system is better than previous works in terms of correct classification rate.

This paper proposes a new method for a hierarchical analysis of human gait by dividing the motion into gait direction and gait posture using the tool of dynamic Bayesian network. Based on Factorial HMM (FHMM), which is a type of DBN, we design the Gait Motion Decoder (GMD) in a circular architecture of state space, which fits nicely to human walking behavior. Most previous studies focused on human identification and were limited in certain viewing angles and forwent modeling of the walking action. But this work makes an explicit and separate modeling of pedestrian pose and posture to recognize gait direction and detect orientation change. Experimental results showed 96.5% in pose identification. The work is among the first efforts to analyze gait motions into gait pose and gait posture, and it could be applied to a broad class of human activities in a number of situations.

In this paper, we discuss a gait representation based on the width of silhouette in terms of discriminative power and robustness against the noise in silhouette image for gait recognition. Its sensitivity to the noise in silhouette image are rigorously analyzed using probabilistic noisy silhouette model. In addition, we develop a gait recognition system using width representation and identify subjects using the decision level fusion based on majority voting. Experiments on CASIA gait dataset A and the SOTON gait database demonstrate the recognition performance with respect to the noise level added to the silhouette image.

The surveillance robot has been an important component in the field of service robot industry. In the surveillance robot technology, one of the most important technology is to identify a person. In this paper, we propose a gait recognition method based on contourlet and fuzzy LDA (Linear Discriminant Analysis) for surveillance robots. After decomposing a gait image into directional subband images by contourlet, features are obtained in each subband by the fuzzy LDA. The final gait recognition is performed by a fusion technique that effectively combines similarities calculated respectively in each local subband. To show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, various experiments are performed for CBNU and NLPR DB datasets. From these, we obtained better classification rates in comparison with the result produced by previous methods.

There is an increasing interest in health and research on methods for measuring human body information. The importance of continuously observing information such as the step change and the walking speed is increasing. At a person's gait, information about the disease and the currently weakened area can be known. In this paper, gait is measured using wearable walking module built in shoes. We want to make continuous measurement possible by simplifying gait measurement method. This module is designed to receive information of gyro sensor and acceleration sensor. The designed module is capable of WiFi communication and the collected walking information is stored in the server. The information stored in the server is corrected by integrating the acceleration sensor and the gyro sensor value. A band-pass filter was used to reduce the error. This data is categorized by the Gait Finder into walking and waiting states. When walking, each step is divided and stored separately for analysis.
