Abstract
In this paper we will show that using Principle Component Analysis (PCA) on accelerometer based gait data will give a large improvement on the performance. On a dataset of 720 gait samples (60 volunteers and 12 gait samples per volunteer) we achieved an EER of 1.6% while the best result so far, using the Average Cycle Method (ACM), gave a result of nearly 6%. This tremendous increase makes gait recognition a viable method in commercial applications in the near future.
