Due to the singularity of the within-class scatter, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) becomes ill-posed for small sample size (SSS) problems. An extension of LDA, the null space-based LDA (NLDA) provides good discriminant performances for SSS problems. In this paper, by applying the Lagrange technique, the procedure of transforming the problem of finding the feature extractor of NLDA into a linear equation problem is derived.

In this paper, we propose a gait type classification method based on pressure sensor which reflects various terrain and velocity variations. In order to obtain stable gait classification performance, we divide the whole gait data into several steps by detecting the swing phase, and normalize each step. Then, we extract robust features for both topographic variation and speed variation by using the Null-LDA(Null-Space Linear Discriminant Analysis) method. The experimental results show that the proposed method gives a good performance of gait type classification even though there is a change in the gait velocity and the terrain.
