Statistical Gait Analysis Based on the Microwave Doppler Sensor Data(Session 1a)

Abstract

A study on the human gait is important in the fields of the biometrics study and the sports/health managements for planning optimal trainings. Gait analysis is mainly based on motion capture system and video data. However, from the standpoint of gait recognition, motion capture system is distant idea for biometrics. Video camera based approach is the realistic way. However, video camera is highly visible in the monitoring environment. If the subjects notice the camera system, subjects may change the behavior. In this study, we focusing on the doppler sensor based gait recognition. The purpose of this study is human gait modeling and parameter estimation based on the doppler sensor system.
