The OU-ISIR Gait Database Comprising the Treadmill Dataset

This paper describes a large-scale gait database comprising the Treadmill Dataset. The dataset focuses on variations in walking conditions and includes 200 subjects with 25 views, 34 subjects with 9 speed variations from 2km/h to 10km/h with a 1km/h interval, and 68 subjects with at most 32 clothes variations. The range of variations in these three factors is significantly larger than that of previous gait databases, and therefore, the Treadmill Dataset can be used in research on invariant gait recognition. Moreover, the dataset contains more diverse gender and ages than the existing databases and hence it enables us to evaluate gait-based gender and age group classification in more statistically reliable way.
