Title
Speed-Invariant Gait Recognition Using Single-Support Gait Energy Image.
Abstract
Gait is one of the most popular behavioral biometrics because it can be authenticated at a distance from a camera without subject cooperation. Speed differences between matching pairs, however, cause significant performance drops in gait recognition, and gait mode difference (i.e., walking versus running) makes gait recognition further challenging. We therefore propose a speed-invariant gait representation called single-support GEI (SSGEI), which realizes a good trade-off between speed invariance and stability by aggregating multiple frames around single-support phases. In addition, to mitigate the pose differences between walking and running modes at single-support phases, we morph walking and running SSGEIs into intermediate SSGEIs between walking and running mode, where we exploit a free-form deformation field from the walking or running modes to the intermediate mode obtained by training data. We finally apply Gabor filtering and spatial metric learning as postprocessing for further accuracy improvement. Experiments on two publicly available datasets, the OU-ISIR Treadmill Dataset A and the CASIA-C Dataset demonstrate that the proposed method yields the state-of-the-art accuracies in both identification and verification scenarios with a low computational cost.
