Gait-Based Person Identification Robust to Changes in Appearance
نویسندگان
چکیده
The identification of a person from gait images is generally sensitive to appearance changes, such as variations of clothes and belongings. One possibility to deal with this problem is to collect possible subjects' appearance changes in a database. However, it is almost impossible to predict all appearance changes in advance. In this paper, we propose a novel method, which allows robustly identifying people in spite of changes in appearance, without using a database of predicted appearance changes. In the proposed method, firstly, the human body image is divided into multiple areas, and features for each area are extracted. Next, a matching weight for each area is estimated based on the similarity between the extracted features and those in the database for standard clothes. Finally, the subject is identified by weighted integration of similarities in all areas. Experiments using the gait database CASIA show the best correct classification rate compared with conventional methods experiments.

Gait-Assisted Person Re-identification in Wide Area Surveillance
Gait has been shown to be an effective feature for person recognition and could be well suited for the problem of multi-frame person re-identification (Re-ID). However, person Re-ID poses very unique set of challenges, with changes in view angles and environments across cameras. Thus, the feature needs to be highly discriminative as well as robust to drastic variations to be effective for Re-ID...

This paper describes a representation of gait appearance for the purpose of person identification and classification. This gait representation is based on simple features such as moments extracted from orthogonal view video silhouettes of human walking motion. Despite its simplicity, the resulting feature vector contains enough information to perform well on human identification and gender clas...
متن کاملEnhancing Person Re-identification by Integrating Gait Biometric
This paper proposes a method to enhance person re-identification by integrating gait biometric. The framework consists of the hierarchical feature extraction and matching methods. Considering the appearance feature is not discriminative in some cases, the feature in this work composes of the appearance feature and the gait feature for shape and temporal information. In order to solve the view-a...
متن کاملGait Identification Considering Body Tilt by Walking Direction Changes
Gait identification has recently gained attention as a method of identifying individuals at a distance. Thought most of the previous works mainly treated straight-walk sequences for simplicity, curved-walk sequences should be also treated considering situations where a person walks along a curved path or enters a building from a sidewalk. In such cases, person’s body sometimes tilts by centrifu...
متن کاملPerson Re-identification in Appearance Impaired Scenarios
Person re-identification is critical in surveillance applications. Current approaches rely on appearance-based features extracted from a single or multiple shots of the target and candidate matches. These approaches are at a disadvantage when trying to distinguish between candidates dressed in similar colors or when targets change their clothing. In this paper we propose a dynamics-based featur...
