While the goal of robotic bipedal walking to date has been the development of anthropomorphic gait, the community as a whole has been unable to agree upon an appropriate model to generate such gait. In this paper, we describe a method to segment human walking data in order to generate a robotic model capable of human-like walking. Generating the model requires the determination of the sequence of contact point enforcements which requires solving a combinatorial scheduling problem. We resolve this problem by transforming the detection of contact point enforcements into a constrained switched system optimal control problem for which we develop a provably convergent algorithm. We conclude the paper by illustrating the performance of the algorithm on identifying a model for robotic bipedal walking.
