Human identification using gait recognition

Identification of a person based on gait has created a sphere of curiosity in computer vision domain due to its high recognition capability even at a far distance. Vision based stance recognition has the ability to support Human Computer Interaction (HCI) efficiently. Gait recognition technology can be used in many civilian and high security applications like car parks, banks, military bases, railway stations and airports. The main aim of the project is to develop automatic biometric system to identify a person based on his Gait. This can be implemented by identifying subject from video frame, necessary feature extraction using skeleton information obtained from Microsoft Kinect sensor and classification against the database.
