Abstract

Human identification in a distance by the analysis of gait patterns extracted from video has recently become a research topic. In this paper, a feature fusion method is proposed for gait recognition. Firstly, four energy accumulation images of gait energy image (GEI), change energy images (CIE), are generated from a sequence of silhouettes of a gait cycle. Secondly, Orthogonal locally discriminant projection (OLDP) is applied to four sequence of energy accumulation images and four low-dimensionality vectors are obtained, respectively. Thirdly, the classifying feature vector is established by fusing the four vectors. Then nearest neighbor criterion is employed to recognize gait. The experimental results on Chinese CASIA database A show the effectiveness and feasibility of the method proposed in this paper.
