Abstract

This paper proposes a method of user authentication through the patterns of arm movement with a wrist-type wearable device. Using the accelerometer sensor which is built in the device, the 3-axis accelerometer data are collected. Then, the collected data are integrated and the periodic cycle are extracted. In the cycle, the features of frequency are generated with the accelerometer. With the frequency features, 2D Gaussian mixture are modelled. For authenticating an user, the data(the accelerometer) of the user at some point are tested with confidence interval of the Gaussian distribution. The model showed a valuable results for the user authentication with an example, which is average 92% accuracy with 95% confidence interval.

본 논문은 손목 착용형 웨어러블 기기를 착용한 사용자의 걸음걸이에서 흔들리는 팔의 패턴을 통하여 사용자를 인증하는 방법을 제안한다. 기기에 내장된 가속도 센서를 이용하여 샘플링된 3축 가속도 센서 데이터를 수집한다. 수집한 데이터를 신호처리 기법을 통해 변환하여 걸음의 주기를 찾고, 푸리에 변환으로 걸음걸이의 주파수와 크기를 특징으로 추출하여, 2D 혼합 가우시안 모델(GMM)로 학습한 뒤, 신뢰구간 검증 방식으로 테스트한다. 실험결과 95%의 신뢰구간에서 사용자 평균 92%로 사용자를 인증함을 보였다.
