Human Gait Recognition Using Body Measures and Joint Angles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gait is the walking style or pattern of the human motions. This research aims to improve the accuracy of human gait recognition using the information provided by Microsoft Kinect. It benefits from a human joint positioning system by Kinect in three dimensions and proposes a new method in recognising the human gait. In this method, the angles between the body’s joints during the walking process have been used in addition to the body’s limb dimensions and lengths. The result of the experiments has proved that this method can provide higher accuracy in recognising the human gait in comparison to the previous method.

Gait Recognition Using Joint Moments, Joint Angles and Segment Angles
INTRODUCTION Recognition of gait patterns has been studied intensively during the last decades. Different gait strategies have been elucidated by applying different waveform analysis techniques to biomechanical gait data [1,2] and it has been shown that individuals can be identified using joint angles in the sagittal plane [3]. However, little is known about additional biomechanical variables f...
متن کاملConceptual Design of a Gait Rehabilitation Robot
Gait rehabilitation using body weight support on a treadmill is a recommended rehabilitation technique for neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury. In this paper, a new robotic orthosis is presented for treadmill training. In the presented design the criteria such as low inertia of robot components, backdrivability, high safety and degrees of freedom based on human walking are conside...
متن کاملDTW-Based Gait Recognition from Recovered 3-D Joint Angles and Inter-ankle Distance
We present a view independent approach for 3D human gait recognition. The identification of the person is done on the basis of motion estimated by our marker-less 3D motion tracking algorithm. We show tracking performance using ground-truth data acquired by Vicon motion capture system. The identification is achieved by dynamic time warping using both joint angles and inter-joint distances. We s...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Segmentation of Continuous Human Motion from Monocular Video Images
At least 32 joint related degrees of freedom need to be estimated to reliably track the human body in 3D. The particle filter is robust to distracting clutter by maintaining multiple hypotheses for each of these joint angles. Real-time tracking is difficult however with the computational overhead of such a large search space. This paper optimises this search space utilising feedback from a Cont...
متن کاملGait Recognition Based on Joint Distribution of Motion Angles
as a biometric trait has the ability to be recognized in remote monitoring. In this paper, a method based on joint distribution of motion angles is proposed for gait recognition. The new feature of the motion angles of lower limbs are defined and extracted from either 2D video database or 3D motion capture database, and the corresponding angles of right leg and left leg are joined together to w...
