It depends on how "gender" is defined exactly. E.g. if you classify any person, who is identified as female by the algorithm, as female, you get a tautological problem. Persons in wheelchairs or with one leg, very tired or injured persons, persons walking backwards and playing children do have a gender also. So my advice is (sorry for the frequent contributors in this forum, who have read this personal opinion already): Why bothering Matlab with a task, which cannot be accurately defined, but solved by a 5 year old child more reliably?
But in contrary to this, your favorite internet search engine will find a lot of publications for the terms "gender gait analysis". So please start there, if you think this is a useful task at all.
