%0 Journal Article %T Human Gait Recognition Using Bezier Curves %A Pratibha Mishra %A Shweta Ezra %J International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering %D 2011 %I Engg Journals Publications %X Gait recognition refers to automatic identification of an individual based on the style of walking. It is a new biometrics recognition technology. It has accomplished a series of achievements in scientific research in recent years. This paper proposed a new algorithm which is based on Bezier curves. Bezier curves are generated according to person¡¯s walk and recognition is achieved by matching those curves by calculating the mean and variance, and used for recognition. Only the side-view of the person is considered, since this viewing angle provide the richest information of the gait of the waking person. The experimental result shows that the proposed approach has a good recognition performance. %K Gait recognition %K Biometrics %K Bezier Curves %K Control points %K Database %K Mean %K Variance. %U http://www.enggjournals.com/ijcse/doc/IJCSE11-03-02-129.pdf
