A study on gait recognition using LPC cepstrum for mobile terminal

Abstract

The use of mobile terminals has been expanding dramatically in recent years as they evolve from a means of dispatching and gathering information to a highly functional tool that supports personal lifestyles and behavior. A mobile terminal is likely to store various kinds of personal information such as a calendar and contact information as well as key data to carry out online transactions. Losing one's mobile terminal therefore creates the possibility that one's personal information may fall into the wrong hands and be used for malicious purposes. We therefore propose a method of personal authentication using sensor data in a mobile terminal. First, we applied the LPC cepstrum to this authentication and checked for validity. We also evaluated the effectiveness of gait authentication using several frames.
