MMGait: Benchmarking and Unifying Gait Recognition across Heterogeneous Modalities

Gait recognition is commonly studied using RGB videos or their derived silhouettes and poses. Yet human walking produces heterogeneous photometric, geometric, and motion cues that cannot be systematically examined with RGB-centered benchmarks. We present MMGait, a large-scale multi-sensor benchmark that brings visible, infrared, depth, LiDAR, and radar observations into sequence-level correspondence. It provides diverse modalities spanning appearance, contours, geometry, motion, and body structure. Under a shared impostor-augmented protocol, we evaluate single-modal recognition, cross-modal recognition via directed retrieval, and multi-modal recognition using task-specific experts. Across settings, modality rankings vary with probe conditions, cross-modal alignment remains difficult, and fusion often provides complementary gains. This analysis exposes a scalability problem: individual modalities, modality pairs, and fusion configurations are typically handled by separately trained experts. We formulate Omni-Modal Gait Recognition, which unifies single-modal, cross-modal, and multi-modal recognition within a shared identity space. OmniGait++ uses modality-specific front ends followed by a shared identity encoder to preserve modality-dependent cues while learning comparable identity descriptors. An anchor-guided fusion module aggregates modality subsets of varying size without frame-level synchronization. A jointly trained checkpoint covers all three recognition settings and accommodates modality subsets of different compositions and cardinalities. Experiments show OmniGait++ remains competitive with task-specific experts in many shared settings and extends to higher-cardinality fusion unavailable to fixed-pair models. The results establish MMGait as a common testbed for heterogeneous gait sensing and demonstrate the feasibility of unified recognition under varying modality availability.

MMGait: Towards Multi-Modal Gait Recognition

Gait recognition has emerged as a powerful biometric technique for identifying individuals at a distance without requiring user cooperation. Most existing methods focus primarily on RGB-derived modalities, which fall short in real-world scenarios requiring multi-modal collaboration and cross-modal retrieval. To overcome these challenges, we present MMGait, a comprehensive multi-modal gait benchmark integrating data from five heterogeneous sensors, including an RGB camera, a depth camera, an infrared camera, a LiDAR scanner, and a 4D Radar system. MMGait contains twelve modalities and 334,060 sequences from 725 subjects, enabling systematic exploration across geometric, photometric, and motion domains. Based on MMGait, we conduct extensive evaluations on single-modal, cross-modal, and multi-modal paradigms to analyze modality robustness and complementarity. Furthermore, we introduce a new task, Omni Multi-Modal Gait Recognition, which aims to unify the above three gait recognition paradigms within a single model. We also propose a simple yet powerful baseline, OmniGait, which learns a shared embedding space across diverse modalities and achieves promising recognition performance. The MMGait benchmark, codebase, and pretrained checkpoints are publicly available at https://github.com/BNU-IVC/MMGait.

GaitSnippet: Gait Recognition Beyond Unordered Sets and Ordered Sequences

Recent advancements in gait recognition have significantly enhanced performance by treating silhouettes as either an unordered set or an ordered sequence. However, both set-based and sequence-based approaches exhibit notable limitations. Specifically, set-based methods tend to overlook short-range temporal context for individual frames, while sequence-based methods struggle to capture long-range temporal dependencies effectively. To address these challenges, we draw inspiration from human identification and propose a new perspective that conceptualizes human gait as a composition of individualized actions. Each action is represented by a series of frames, randomly selected from a continuous segment of the sequence, which we term a snippet. Fundamentally, the collection of snippets for a given sequence enables the incorporation of multi-scale temporal context, facilitating more comprehensive gait feature learning. Moreover, we introduce a non-trivial solution for snippet-based gait recognition, focusing on Snippet Sampling and Snippet Modeling as key components. Extensive experiments on four widely-used gait datasets validate the effectiveness of our proposed approach and, more importantly, highlight the potential of gait snippets. For instance, our method achieves the rank-1 accuracy of 77.5% on Gait3D and 81.7% on GREW using a 2D convolution-based backbone.

A time-dependent symplectic network for non-convex path planning problems with linear and nonlinear dynamics

We propose a novel neural network architecture (TSympOCNet) to address high--dimensional optimal control problems with linear and nonlinear dynamics. An important application of this method is to solve the path planning problem of multi-agent vehicles in real time. The new method extends our previous SympOCNet framework by introducing a time-dependent symplectic network into the architecture. In addition, we propose a more general latent representation, which greatly improves model expressivity based on the universal approximation theorem. We demonstrate the efficacy of TSympOCNet in path planning problems with obstacle and collision avoidance, including systems with Newtonian dynamics and non-convex environments, up to dimension 512. Our method shows significant promise in handling efficiently both complex dynamics and constraints.

Perceptual Compressive Sensing

Compressive sensing (CS) works to acquire measurements at sub-Nyquist rate and recover the scene images. Existing CS methods always recover the scene images in pixel level. This causes the smoothness of recovered images and lack of structure information, especially at a low measurement rate. To overcome this drawback, in this paper, we propose perceptual CS to obtain high-level structured recovery. Our task no longer focuses on pixel level. Instead, we work to make a better visual effect. In detail, we employ perceptual loss, defined on feature level, to enhance the structure information of the recovered images. Experiments show that our method achieves better visual results with stronger structure information than existing CS methods at the same measurement rate.

Fully Convolutional Measurement Network for Compressive Sensing Image Reconstruction

Recently, deep learning methods have made a significant improvement in compressive sensing image reconstruction task. In the existing methods, the scene is measured block by block due to the high computational complexity. This results in block-effect of the recovered images. In this paper, we propose a fully convolutional measurement network, where the scene is measured as a whole. The proposed method powerfully removes the block-effect since the structure information of scene images is preserved. To make the measure more flexible, the measurement and the recovery parts are jointly trained. From the experiments, it is shown that the results by the proposed method outperforms those by the existing methods in PSNR, SSIM, and visual effect.

Full Image Recover for Block-Based Compressive Sensing

Recent years, compressive sensing (CS) has improved greatly for the application of deep learning technology. For convenience, the input image is usually measured and reconstructed block by block. This usually causes block effect in reconstructed images. In this paper, we present a novel CNN-based network to solve this problem. In measurement part, the input image is adaptively measured block by block to acquire a group of measurements. While in reconstruction part, all the measurements from one image are used to reconstruct the full image at the same time. Different from previous method recovering block by block, the structure information destroyed in measurement part is recovered in our framework. Block effect is removed accordingly. We train the proposed framework by mean square error (MSE) loss function. Experiments show that there is no block effect at all in the proposed method. And our results outperform 1.8 dB compared with existing methods.

Real-Time Illegal Parking Detection System Based on Deep Learning

The increasing illegal parking has become more and more serious. Nowadays the methods of detecting illegally parked vehicles are based on background segmentation. However, this method is weakly robust and sensitive to environment. Benefitting from deep learning, this paper proposes a novel illegal vehicle parking detection system. Illegal vehicles captured by camera are firstly located and classified by the famous Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) algorithm. To improve the performance, we propose to optimize SSD by adjusting the aspect ratio of default box to accommodate with our dataset better. After that, a tracking and analysis of movement is adopted to judge the illegal vehicles in the region of interest (ROI). Experiments show that the system can achieve a 99% accuracy and real-time (25FPS) detection with strong robustness in complex environments.

Adaptive Measurement Network for CS Image Reconstruction

Conventional compressive sensing (CS) reconstruction is very slow for its characteristic of solving an optimization problem. Convolu- tional neural network can realize fast processing while achieving compa- rable results. While CS image recovery with high quality not only de- pends on good reconstruction algorithms, but also good measurements. In this paper, we propose an adaptive measurement network in which measurement is obtained by learning. The new network consists of a fully-connected layer and ReconNet. The fully-connected layer which has low-dimension output acts as measurement. We train the fully-connected layer and ReconNet simultaneously and obtain adaptive measurement. Because the adaptive measurement fits dataset better, in contrast with random Gaussian measurement matrix, under the same measuremen- t rate, it can extract the information of scene more efficiently and get better reconstruction results. Experiments show that the new network outperforms the original one.
