US Patent 12008092 Supervised and unsupervised techniques for motion classification

A system and method are disclosed for identifying a user based on the classification of user movement data. An identity verification system receives a sequence of motion data characterizing movements performed by a target user. The sequence of motion data is received as a point cloud of the motion data. The point cloud is input a machine-learned model trained based on manually labeled point clusters of a training set of motion data that each represent a movement. The machine-learned model identifies a movement represented by the point cloud of the motion data and assigns a label describing the movement the point cloud. The system generates a labeled representation of the sequence of motion data comprising the label identifying a portion of the sequence of motion data corresponding to the identified movement.
