Abstract
This paper proposes a novel multi-kernel fuzzy-based local Gabor binary patterns method (MFLGBP) for the purpose of gait representation and recognition. First, we construct the gait energy image (GEI) from mean motion cycle of a gait sequence. Then, we apply Gabor filters and encode the variations in the Gabor magnitude by using a kernel-based fuzzy local binary pattern (KFLBP) operator. Finally, classification is performed using a support vector machine (SVM). Experiments are carried out using the benchmark CASIA B gait database. Our proposed feature extraction method has shown promising performance in terms of correct recognition rate as compared to other methods.
