Poster Abstract : A Structural Vibration-based Gait Abnormality Detection system

Gait recognition based on structural vibration signals is an emerging area in soft biometrics and healthcare. It is valued for its privacy-preserving features, making it ideal for continuous monitoring in healthcare environments. In this work, we propose a method for simultaneous person identification and gait-abnormality detection using structural vibration signals. We have experimented on a dataset of eight people. The system uses shared feature extraction layers with separate branches for identification and abnormality detection. Our framework achieves a person identification accuracy of ~89.00% and ~90.00% accuracy in detecting abnormality in gait patterns.
