A new approach for video-based face recognition is presented in this paper. The proposed technique is based on the use of key points and related descriptors for image representation. In particular this work introduces a general approach to extend to the temporal dimension the analysis usually carried out on single images, with the aim of deriving a more stable and compact representation of video information...
During a forensic interview, high-stakes deception is very prevalent notwithstanding the heavy consequences that might result. This paper proposes an automated computer vision solution for detecting high-stakes deception based on facial clues. Four deceptive cues (eye-blink, eyebrow motion, wrinkle occurrence and mouth motion) were identified and integrated into a single facial behavior pattern vector...
Previous research on facial expression recognition mainly focuses on near frontal face images, while in realistic interactive scenarios, the interested subjects may appear in arbitrary non-frontal poses. In this paper, we propose a framework to recognize six prototypical facial expressions, namely, anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness and surprise, in an arbitrary head pose. We build a multi-pose training...
Preserving sample's pair wise similarity is essential for feature selection. In supervised learning, labels can be used as a direct measure to check whether two samples are similar with each other. In unsupervised learning, however, such similarity information is usually unavailable. In this paper, we propose a new feature selection method through spectral clustering based on discriminative information...
One of the biggest challenges faced by law enforcement entities in the present digital era, is fighting against online Child Sexual Abuse (CSA), due in particular to the massive amount of data that they receive for analysis. Pattern recognition system can provide an aid, e.g., to ease the identification of both the perpetrator and the victim of the crime. In particular, ancillary cues related the...
Digital photo management is becoming indispensable for the explosively growing family photo albums due to the rapid popularization of digital cameras and mobile phone cameras. An effective photo management system could accurately and efficiently group all faces of the same person into a small number of clusters. In this paper, we present a novel photo grouping method based on spectral theory. The...
Understanding the features employed by the human visual system in gender classification is considered a critical step towards improving machine based gender classification systems. We propose the use of 3D Euclidean and geodesic distances between biologically significant facial landmarks to classify gender. We perform five different experiments on the BU-3DFE face database to look for more representative...
This paper presents a thorough study into the influence of the image resolution on automatic face gender classification. The images involved range from extremely low resolutions (2 ? 1 pixels) to full face sizes (329 ? 264 pixels). A comprehensive comparison of the performances achieved by two classifiers using ten different image sizes is provided by means of two performance measures Correct Classification...
Roman coins play an important role to understand the Roman empire because they convey rich information about key historical events of the time. Moreover, as large amounts of coins are daily traded over the Internet, it becomes necessary to develop automatic coin recognition systems to prevent illegal trades. In this paper, we propose an automatic recognition method for ancient Roman coins. The proposed...
In this paper we present a new static descriptor for facial image analysis. We combine Gaussian derivatives with Local Binary Patterns to provide a robust and powerful descriptor especially suited to extracting texture from facial images. Gaussian features in the form of image derivatives form the input to the Linear Binary Pattern(LBP) operator instead of the original image. The proposed descriptor...
Spotting micro-expressions is a primary step for continuous emotion recognition from videos. Spotting in this context refers to automatically finding the temporal locations of the face-related events from a video sequence. Rapid facial movements mainly include micro-expressions and eye blinks. However, the role of eye blinks in expressing emotions is still controversial, and often they are considered...
This paper aims to explore the optimal feature selection with dimensionality reduction and jointly sparse representation scheme for classification. The proposed method is called Optimal Feature Selection Classification (OFSC). Our model simultaneously learns an orthogonal subspace for jointly sparse feature selection and representation via l2,1-norms regularization. To solve the proposed model, an...
Despite the existence of many state-of-the-art face verification systems, the use of complex features and/or high order recognition models in these systems limits their application in devices with low computation power or low latency requirement. In this paper, we approach the problem by performing verification using simple linear distance model. We introduce a novel probability-based distance metric...
3D-Model-Aided 2D face recognition (MaFR) has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. By registering a 3D model, facial textures of the gallery and the probe can be lifted and aligned in a common space, thus alleviating the challenge of pose variations. One obstacle preventing accurate registration is the 3D-2D pose estimation, which is easily affected by landmarks. In this work, we present...
In this paper, we present an efficient and robust image representation method that can handle misalignment, occlusion and big noises with lower computational cost. It is motivated by the sub-selection technique, which uses partial observations to efficiently approximate the original high dimensional problems. While it is very efficient, their method can not handle many real problems in practical applications,...
Image understanding is an important research domain in the computer vision due to its wide real-world applications. For an image understanding framework that uses the Bag-of-Words model representation, the visual codebook is an essential part. Random forest (RF) as a tree-structure discriminative codebook has been a popular choice. However, the performance of the RF can be degraded if the local patch...
Sparse coding is a regularized least squares solution using the L1 or L0 constraint, based on the Euclidean distance between original and reconstructed signals with respect to a predefined dictionary. The Euclidean distance, however, is not a good metric for many feature descriptors, especially histogram features, e.g. many visual features including SIFT, HOG, LBP and Bag-of-visual-words. In contrast,...
We propose a gender classifier using two types of local features, the gradient features which have strong discrimination capability on local patterns, and the Gabor wavelets which reflect the multi-scale directional information. The Real Ad a Boost algorithm with complexity penalty term is applied to choose meaningful regions from human face for feature extraction, while balancing the discriminative...
The advent of near infrared imagery and it's applications in face recognition has instigated research in cross spectral (visible to near infrared) matching. Existing research has focused on extracting textural features including variants of histogram of oriented gradients. This paper focuses on studying the effectiveness of these features for cross spectral face recognition. On NIR-VIS-2.0 cross spectral...
In most human surveillance and forensic applications, key requirement is often to achieve highest possible true positive identification accuracy with a judicious compromise in accepting false positive identities. However with such scenario's in mind, there has been lack of any effort to develop adaptive security management for open set biometric recognition and most of the available prior work in...
