Front side gait cycle detecting method based on video

A cycle detection and gait technology, which is applied in the field of pattern recognition, can solve problems such as the influence of shadows on legs and feet, inability to detect frontal gait cycles, and inapplicable cycle judgments, so as to save storage space and overcome frontal gait cycles The effect of inaccurate detection and small amount of calculation

Problems solved by technology

BenAbdelkader also determined the gait cycle by calculating the width change of the bounding rectangle of the human body outline; Collins et al. analyzed the periodic changes in the height and width of the human body, and then observed the gait cycle; Kale et al. observed the norm of the human body width vector The periodic characteristics of the gait are analyzed over time; however, the width of the frontal gait remains basically constant, so these methods cannot be used for periodic detection of the frontal gait
Sarkar et al. used the periodic characteristics of the number of pixels in the lo

Embodiment Construction

[0038] The present invention is described in more detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing example:

[0039] 1. Original video acquisition

[0040] Because in an actual monitoring system, it may not be possible to ensure that the direction of the camera is strictly 90° to the plane where the human body is located. We also simulate the real video surveillance environment and build a small gait database HEU(A) with a certain depression angle in April 2008. The condition for establishing the gait database is to set up the camera on the window sill of the laboratory on the third floor and look down at the observed person downstairs at a certain angle. We assume that the gait data acquisition environment is (1) the camera is stationary; (2) There is only one moving human body in the field of vision; (3) The photographing direction and the plane where the human body is located should be as large as possible ( figure 2 Walk in the 8 directions shown: 0°, 45°, 90°, 135°,...

Abstract

The invention provides a front side gait cycle detecting method based on video, which comprises the target profile capture of a pedestrian and the cycle detection of a front side gait. Firstly, a single-frame image is extracted from the video, and is treated by gray level transformation, and then an image without a human body is used as the original background image of the whole video; secondly, a human body target is extracted by adopting a background deduction method with a real-time updated background, and binarization treatment is carried out on an image sequence by a Kapur entropy threshold method; thirdly, the vacancy of the binarized image is filled up by mathematical morphology, a human silhouette is extracted and analyzed by single communication so as to centralize the human body, and all the sizes of the images are 64*64 pixels; finally, the extracted human body is detected, the redundant frames containing an incomplete human body are eliminated, and the number change of the pixels of a lower arm swinging area is used as the basis for judging the front side gait cycle according to the relation of the proportion of the limbs to a body height. The invention has significant effect on the detection of the front side gait cycle, and the amount of calculation is small, thereby saving a large amount of storage space so as to make real-time gait identification possible.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pattern recognition technology, in particular to a video-based frontal gait cycle detection method. (2) Background technology [0002] Gait refers to the posture in which people walk, and is the only perceivable biological behavioral characteristic at long distances. It achieves the purpose of identifying people by walking. We all know that people walk in different ways and that the movements of their feet and the rest of their body are unique. Moreover, this posture is relatively stable, and it is not easy to change in a certain time range and under the same walking environment, and people can judge the identity of the traveler accordingly. Gait recognition has the advantages of non-invasive, non-contact, difficult to hide and camouflage, easy to collect, and long-distance. Gait recognition research is a popular research topic in the field of computer vision and pattern recognition in recent years. It has great theore...
