New Gait Recognition Method Uses Mixture of Experts to Handle Occlusions

Researchers have introduced GaitMoE, a novel approach to gait recognition that addresses challenges posed by occlusions in real-world scenarios. This method frames gait recognition as an action detection problem, utilizing a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture. The system comprises Mixture of Temporal Experts (MTE) and Mixture of Action Experts (MAE) to adaptively construct action anchors and proposals, enabling accurate action detection even with missing or noisy information. To facilitate research in this area, the team has also created OccGait, a new database specifically designed for occluded gait recognition scenarios. AI

IMPACT Introduces a new method for improving AI's ability to identify individuals based on their gait, even when parts of their body are obscured.

    Occluded Gait Recognition with Mixture of Experts: An Action Detection Perspective

    arXiv:2609.18432v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extensive occlusions in real-world scenarios pose challenges to gait recognition due to missing and noisy information, as well as body misalignment in position and scale. We argue that rich dynamic contextual information within a ga…
