Abstract :
A new technique of gait representation is considered. This technique allows a simple explanation of the changing gait process under a condition that only intrinsic parameters vary. Then, a symmetry concept is stated based on comparison between the reduced diagrams of the gaits been compared. A simple approach to low level architecture is introduced; it is called `the master of gaits´
