Over the last years, there has been an increasing research interest in the application of accelerometry data for many kinds of automated gait analysis algorithms. The need for more security on mobile devices is increasing with new functionalities and features made available. To improve the device security we propose an improved biometric gait recognition approach with a stable cycle detection mechanism and comparison algorithm. Unlike previous work on wearable gait recognition, which was based from simple average cycling methods to more complicated methods, this paper reports new techniques for which can improve the performance, by using simple approaches. Preprocessing, cycle detection and recognition-analysis were applied to the acceleration signal. The performance of the system was evaluated having 60 volunteers and 12 sessions each volunteer and resulted in an equal error rate (EER) of 5.7%.
