Identity Recognition based on Convolutional Neural Networks Using Gait Data

摘要

As a critical part of any security system, identity recognition has become paramount among researchers. In this regard, several methods are presented while considering various sensors and data. In particular, gait data yields rich information about a person, including some exclusive moving patterns which can be utilized to distinguish between different individuals. On the other hand, convolutional neural networks are proved to be applicable for structured data, especially images. In this article, 12 markers are considered in gathering the gait data, each representing a lower-body joint location. Then, utilizing the gait data in a 2D tensor form, three different convolutional neural networks are trained to recognize the identities. Taking light architectures into account, this approach is implementable in realtime application. The obtained result shows the promising capability of the proposed method being used in identity recognition.
