Abstract :
Recently human gait has been considered as a useful biometric supporting high performance human identification systems. Here we are more interested in understanding the gait including the direction rather than the human identity. We propose the use of SOM for interpreting human gait activity using the silhouettes of a pedestrian. The technique and the result may be able to find applications in view-independent direction and gait recognition as well as activity analysis.
