In Face recognition, a combination of neural network (NN), known as an ensemble of neural network, often outperforms individual ones. This paper is aiming to present a support vector machines (SVM)-ensemble-based efficient face recognition system. The training samples are randomly chosen by means of bootstrap technique to train the different SVM independently. These SVM's are combined together to...
Consider a face image data set from clients of a company and the problem of building a face recognition system from it. Video cameras can be used to acquire several images per client in order to maximize the robustness of the system. However, as the data set grows huge, the accuracy of the system might be seriously compromised since the number of negative samples for each user is increasing. We propose...
For face recognition systems, impostors can obtain legal identity authentication by presenting the printed images, the downloaded images or candid videos to the sensor. In this paper, an enhanced face local binary feature (ELBP) of a face map is extracted as a classification feature to identify whether the face map is a real face or a fake face. Compared with the dynamic or static methods proposed...
The importance of face anti-spoofing algorithms in biometric authentication systems is becoming indispensable. Recently, the success of Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) in key application areas of computer vision has encouraged its use in face biometrics for face anti-spoofing and verification applications. However, small training data has restricted the use of deep CNN architectures for face anti-spoofing...
This study analyzes the effectiveness of the global (the whole face) and local (regions of eyes, nose, and mouth) features for face recognition. Features describing human faces are encoded in local ternary patterns. The two-class support vector machine is used as the supervised learning algorithm for training recognition models. In the recognition process, recognition modes based on the global features...
As the issue of robustness of face recognition based on depth image sets, we propose that multiple Kinect images is being as a set of images, and depth data captured is used to automatically estimate poses and crop face area. Firstly, divide image sets into c subsets, and divide the images in all the subsets into image blocks of 4×4. Then, simulate images in sets as a form of image blocks, dividing...
Sparse representation based classification (SRC) has been introduced as a new algorithm for face recognition classification instead of the classical gradient-based algorithms. However, there are some limitations that influence the robustness properties in SRC. One of the most effective parameters that impacts the SRC performance is the directory of training samples. It should contain enough samples...
Face gender classification plays an important role in pattern recognition, and it is a challenging research direction, but the current research is not perfect. We use the MB-LBP operator to extract the facial texture feature, which can be used as the training sample of the gender classifier, and it reduces the influence of the noise in the complex facial image. In addition, we propose the method of...
Unknown awareness is very important for many applications such as face recognition. In a typical unknown aware classifier, an “unknown” label is assigned to strange test instances. This study proposes an unknown aware classifier known as UAkNN by extending the well-known kNN classifier. In UAkNN, unknown awareness is achieved by exploiting distances between instances of individual classes. These distances...
Face recognition system is used for the identification and verification of a face from a video or digital image. In the first phase, Viola Jones algorithm is used to detect and crop face region automatically from image/video frame. The second phase is to recognize the face of a person, in our proposed method Bag of Word technique used to extract features from an image which uses SURF for interest...
This research presents framework for real time face recognition and face emotion detection system based on facial features and their actions. The key elements of Face are considered for prediction of face emotions and the user. The variations in each facial feature are used to determine the different emotions of face. Machine learning algorithms are used for recognition and classification of different...
In this paper, we describe a one-class classification method based on Support Vector Data Description, which exploits multiple graph structures in its optimization process. We derive in a generic solution which can be employed for supervised one-class classification tasks. The devised method can produce linear or non-linear decision functions, depending on the adopted kernel function. In our experiments,...
Micro-expression recognition is a challenging task in computer vision field due to the repressed facial appearance and short duration. Previous work for micro-expression recognition have used hand-crafted features like LBP-TOP, Gabor filter and optical flow. This paper is the first work to explore the possible use of deep learning for micro-expression recognition task. Due to the lack of data for...
Recognizing the facial expression plays an important role in human computer interaction. Following the recent success of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in image classification and object recognition, this paper proposes a facial expression recognition method that makes full use of CNNs to detect face features globally and locally and that combines global and local generic features for improving...
Face recognition has been receiving continuous academic and commercial attention for the last decades. In this paper, we construct two face recognition systems adopting SVM and Adaboost as the classifiers with fast PCA for facial feature representation. The detailed discussions about algorithm realization are given. Comparison between the two systems and analysis of them are provided through several...
Facial expression recognition in complex environment is one of the difficult tasks of visual recognition in recent years. This paper introduces the visual saliency mechanism and we design automatic searching of the face region in the image. Using the narrow band C-V model to evolve curve, the proposed scheme can obtain the accurate face region. Meanwhile, the SVM will be trained by standard database...
When analysing human activities using data mining or machine learning techniques, it can be useful to infer properties such as the gender or age of the people involved. This paper focuses on the sub-problem of gender recognition, which has been studied extensively in the literature, with two main problems remaining unsolved: how to improve the accuracy on real-world face images, and how to generalise...
A novel and complete framework for face recognition with pose variations using only one image is proposed in this paper. Firstly, feature points on face images are located with view-based AAM (Active Appearance Model), based on which, alignment and normalization are operated on face images. Secondly, mapping from non-frontal images to frontal images is constructed based on the algorithm of linear...
“Ceci n'est pas une pipe” French for “This is not a pipe”. This is the description painted on the first painting in the figure above. But to most of us, how could this painting is not a pipe, at least not to the great Belgian surrealist artist Rene Magritte. He said that the painting is not a pipe, but rather an image of a pipe. In this paper, we present a study on large-scale classification of fine-art...
