• Abstract summary: Two common modalities used for representing the walking sequence of a person are silhouettes and joint skeletons. In this paper, we combine the silhouettes and skeletons and refine the framewise joint predictions for gait recognition. With temporal information from the silhouette sequences, we show that the refined skeletons can improve gait recognition performance without extra annotations.

• Abstract: Identifying humans with their walking sequences, known as gait recognition, is a useful biometric understanding task as it can be observed from a long distance and does not require cooperation from the subject. Two common modalities used for representing the walking sequence of a person are silhouettes and joint skeletons. Silhouette sequences, which record the boundary of the walking person in each frame, may suffer from the variant appearances from carried-on objects and clothes of the person. Framewise joint detections are noisy and introduce some jitters that are not consistent with sequential detections. In this paper, we combine the silhouettes and skeletons and refine the framewise joint predictions for gait recognition. With temporal information from the silhouette sequences, we show that the refined skeletons can improve gait recognition performance without extra annotations. We compare our methods on four public datasets, CASIA-B, OUMVLP, Gait3D and GREW, and show state-of-the-art performance.

  Gait recognition aims to identify a person based on their walking sequences, serving as a useful biometric modality. In representing a person's walking sequence, silhouettes and skeletons are the two primary modalities used. We explore the use of a two-stream representation of skeletons for gait recognition, alongside silhouettes.

  We present a generic Simple Masked Contrastive learning (SimMC) framework to learn effective representations from unlabeled 3D skeletons for person re-ID. Specifically, to fully exploit skeleton features within each skeleton sequence, we first devise a masked prototype contrastive learning (MPC) scheme. Then, we propose the masked intra-sequence contrastive learning (MIC) to capture intra-sequence pattern consistency between subsequences.

  In recent years, most gait recognition methods used the person's silhouette to extract the gait features. Model-based methods do not suffer from these problems and are able to represent the temporal motion of body joints. In this work, we propose an approach based on Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) that combines higher-order inputs, and residual networks.
