With the increasing security breaches nowadays, automated gait recognition has recently received increasing importance in video surveillance technology. In this paper, we propose a method for human identification at distance based on Fuzzy Local Binary Pattern (FLBP). After the Gait Energy Image (GEI) is generated as a spatiotemporal summary of a gait video sequence, a multi-region partitioning is applied and FLBP based features are extracted for each region. We also evaluate the performance under the variation of some factors including viewing angle, clothing and carrying conditions. The experimental work showed that GEI-FLBP with partitioning has remarkably enhanced the identification accuracy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
