Local binary pattern (LBP) has limitation in extracting the edge and direction information, which is vital to infrared face recognition. A new infrared face recognition algorithm fusion of LBP and histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) is proposed. First, LBP operator is adopted to extract the texture feature of an infrared face, and then the edge features of the original infrared face are extracted...
Deep learning is well known as a method to extract hierarchical representations of data. In this paper a novel unsupervised deep learning based methodology, named Local Binary Pattern Network (LBPNet), is proposed to efficiently extract and compare high-level over-complete features in multilayer hierarchy. The LBPNet retains the same topology of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) — one of the most...
Gender identification is a new domain in image recognition. Gender identification of human face is to judge one's gender according to his/her face features. The article adopted local binary pattern (LBP) algorithm to build feature subspaces, and processed data using Support Vector Machine (SVM) learning models. Experiments showed that integration of LBP algorithm with linear SVM and integration of...
Face representation, including both feature extraction and feature selection, is the key issue for a successful face recognition system. In this paper, we propose a novel face representation scheme based on nonsubsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) and block-based kernel Fisher linear discriminant (BKFLD). NSCT is a newly developed multiresolution analysis tool and has the ability to extract both...
Age invariant face recognition is an important yet less investigated problem in the face recognition community. In this paper, we empirically evaluate state-of-the-art facial feature representations for age-invariant face recognition. Three representative features including local binary pattern (LBP), Gabor wavelets and gradient orientation pyramid (GOP) were applied, followed by a principal component...
Automatic facial expression recognition is a challenging problem in computer vision, and has gained significant importance in applications of human-computer interaction. This paper presents a new appearance-based feature descriptor, the Local Directional Pattern Variance (LDPv), to represent facial components for human expression recognition. In contrast with LDP, the proposed LDPv introduces the...
This paper presents a new Sobel-LBP, an extension of existing local binary pattern (LBP), for facial image representation. The face image is filtered by Sobel operator to enhance the edge information. Sobel-LBP feature distributions are then extracted and concatenated into a spatial histogram to be used as a face descriptor. The proposed method is compared with the original LBP on both gray-level...
