Class Energy Image Analysis for Video Sensor-Based Gait Recognition: A Review <s> Experiments and Analysis <s> Identification of people by analysis of gait patterns extracted from video has recently become a popular research problem. However, the conditions under which the problem is "solvable" are not understood or characterized. To provide a means for measuring progress and characterizing the properties of gait recognition, we introduce the humanlD gait challenge problem. The challenge problem consists of a baseline algorithm, a set of 12 experiments, and a large data set. The baseline algorithm estimates silhouettes by background subtraction and performs recognition by temporal correlation of silhouettes. The 12 experiments are of increasing difficulty, as measured by the baseline algorithm, and examine the effects of five covariates on performance. The covariates are: change in viewing angle, change in shoe type, change in walking surface, carrying or not carrying a briefcase, and elapsed time between sequences being compared. Identification rates for the 12 experiments range from 78 percent on the easiest experiment to 3 percent on the hardest. All five covariates had statistically significant effects on performance, with walking surface and time difference having the greatest impact. The data set consists of 1,870 sequences from 122 subjects spanning five covariates (1.2 gigabytes of data). This infrastructure supports further development of gait recognition algorithms and additional experiments to understand the strengths and weaknesses of new algorithms. The experimental results are presented, the more detailed is the possible meta-analysis and greater is the understanding. It is this potential from the adoption of this challenge problem that represents a radical departure from traditional computer vision research methodology. <s> BIB001 </s> Class Energy Image Analysis for Video Sensor-Based Gait Recognition: A Review <s> Experiments and Analysis <s> Gait recognition has gained increasing interest from researchers, but there is still no standard evaluation method to compare the performance of different gait recognition algorithms. In this paper, a framework is proposed in an attempt to tackle this problem. The framework consists of a large gait database, a large set of well designed experiments and some evaluation metrics. There are 124 subjects in the database, and the gait data was captured from 11 views. Three variations, namely view angle, clothing and carrying condition changes, are separately considered in the database. The database is one of the largest database among the existing databases. Three sets of experiments, including a total of 363 experiments, are designed in the framework. Some metrics are proposed to evaluate gait recognition algorithms. <s> BIB002
We evaluated the various video sensor-based Class Energy Image approaches by performing experiments on two benchmark public datasets: CASIA B dataset BIB002 and University of South Florida (USF) HumanID dataset BIB001 , some video examples in the gait datasets are demonstrated in Figure 11 . All experiments are implemented by Matlab and tested on a Core 2 Duo 3.17 GHz computer with 2 GB memory.
