AB - There are several confounding factors that can reduce the accuracy of gaitrecognition systems. These factors can reduce the distinctiveness, or alter thefeatures used to characterise gait, they include variations in clothing,lighting, pose and environment, such as the walking surface. Full invariance toall confounding factors is challenging in the absence of high-quality labelledtraining data. We introduce a simulation-based methodology and asubject-specific dataset which can be used for generating synthetic videoframes and sequences for data augmentation. With this methodology, we generateda multi-modal dataset. In addition, we supply simulation files that provide theability to simultaneously sample from several confounding variables. The basisof the data is real motion capture data of subjects walking and running on atreadmill at different speeds. Results from gait recognition experimentssuggest that information about the identity of subjects is retained withinsynthetically generated examples. The dataset and methodology allow studiesinto fully-invariant identity recognition spanning a far greater number ofobservation conditions than would otherwise be possible.
