Popis: A gait is a walking pattern that can help identify a person. Recently, gait analysis employed a vision-based pose estimation for further feature extraction. This research aims to identify a person by analyzing their walking pattern. Moreover, the authors intend to expand gait analysis for other tasks, e.g., the analysis of clinical, psychological, and emotional tasks. The vision-based human pose estimation method is used in this study to extract the joint angles and rank correlation between them. We deploy the multi-view gait databases for the experiment, i.e., CASIA-B and OUMVLP-Pose. The features are separated into three parts, i.e., whole, upper, and lower body features, to study the effect of the human body part features on an analysis of the gait. For person identity matching, a minimum Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distance is determined. Additionally, we apply a majority voting algorithm to integrate the separated matching results from multiple cameras to enhance accuracy, and it improved up to approximately 30% compared to matching without majority voting.
