Model-based gait recognition using graph network on very large population database

Zhihao Wang, Chaoying Tang

At present, the existing gait recognition systems are focusing on developing methods to extract robust gait feature from silhouette images and they indeed achieved great success. However, gait can be sensitive to appearance features such as clothing and carried items. Compared with appearance-based method, model-based gait recognition is promising due to the robustness against these variations. In recent years, with the development of human pose estimation, the difficulty of model-based gait recognition methods has been mitigated. In this paper, to resist the increase of subjects and views variation, local features are built and a siamese network is proposed to maximize the distance of samples from the same subject. We leverage recent advances in action recognition to embed human pose sequence to a vector and introduce Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolution Blocks (STGCB) which has been commonly used in action recognition for gait recognition. Experiments on the very large population dataset named OUMVLP-Pose and the popular dataset, CASIA-B, show that our method archives some state-of-the-art (SOTA) performances in model-based gait recognition. The code and models of our method are available at https://github.com/timelessnaive/Gait-for-Large-Dataset after being accepted.

Rainbow Artifacts from Electromagnetic Signal Injection Attacks on Image Sensors

Youqian Zhang, Xinyu Ji, Zhihao Wang et al.

Image sensors are integral to a wide range of safety- and security-critical systems, including surveillance infrastructure, autonomous vehicles, and industrial automation. These systems rely on the integrity of visual data to make decisions. In this work, we investigate a novel class of electromagnetic signal injection attacks that target the analog domain of image sensors, allowing adversaries to manipulate raw visual inputs without triggering conventional digital integrity checks. We uncover a previously undocumented attack phenomenon on CMOS image sensors: rainbow-like color artifacts induced in images captured by image sensors through carefully tuned electromagnetic interference. We further evaluate the impact of these attacks on state-of-the-art object detection models, showing that the injected artifacts propagate through the image signal processing pipeline and lead to significant mispredictions. Our findings highlight a critical and underexplored vulnerability in the visual perception stack, highlighting the need for more robust defenses against physical-layer attacks in such systems.
