초록

최근, 사람을 인식하는데 있어 걸음걸이가 기존에 사용되어 오던 많은 생체인식을 보완할 만한 것으로 등장하였다. 본 연구는 보행자 실루엣의 동적 특징과 은닉 마르코프 모델(HMM)을 이용한 보행자 인식 방법을 제안한다. 보행자의 보행 모델은 무한 순환 구조의 HMM 두 가지를 사용하였다. 하나는 자기 조직화 지도(SOM)를 벡터 양자화기로 하는 이산 HMM방식이고, 다른 하나는 주성분 분석(PCA) 공간으로 변환된 특징 벡터를 이용하는 연속 HMM방식이다. 실험 결과 HMM이 몇 가지 변수의 조정에 대해 일관성 있는 성능 변화를 보이며 최고 88.1%의 인식률을 기록하였다. 또한 기존 연구 결과와 비교하여 볼 때 특징과 제안 구조의 모델은 보행자 인식에 충분한 적용 가능성이 있으며, 나아가 걸음걸이가 생체 인식으로 이용되기에 좋은 지표가 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently human gait has been considered as a useful biometric supporting high performance human identification systems. This paper proposes a view-based pedestrian identification method using the dynamic silhouettes of a human body modeled with the Hidden Markov Model(HMM). Two types of gait models have been developed both with an endless cycle architecture: one is a discrete HMM method using a self-organizing map-based VQ codebook and the other is a continuous HMM method using feature vectors transformed into a PCA space. Experimental results showed a consistent performance trend over a range of model parameters and the recognition rate up to 88.1%. Compared with other methods, the proposed models and techniques are believed to have a sufficient potential for a successful application to gait recognition.
