Combining Face Verification Experts
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the combination of face verification algorithms in order to improve the verification performance. Although the different face experts that we consider provide their output scores on the basis of the same image, they are complementary to each other and their combination, using a simple sum rule, outperforms the best individual expert. Our experiments were conducted on the standard XM2VTS face database.

Multiple classifier combination for face-based identity verification
When combining outputs from multiple classifiers, many combination rules are available. Although easy to implement, fixed combination rules are optimal only in restrictive conditions. We discuss and evaluate their performance when the optimality conditions are not fulfilled. Fixed combination rules are then compared with trainable combination rules on real data in the context of face-based iden...
متن کاملFusion of face and speech data for person identity verification
Biometric person identity authentication is gaining more and more attention. The authentication task performed by an expert is a binary classification problem: reject or accept identity claim. Combining experts, each based on a different modality (speech, face, fingerprint, etc.), increases the performance and robustness of identity authentication systems. In this context, a key issue is the fu...
متن کاملNearest Neighbourhood Classifiers in a Bimodal Biometric Verification System Fusion Decision Scheme
Identity verification systems that use a mono modal biometrics always have to contend with sensor noise and limitations of feature extractor and matching. However combining information from different biometrics modalities may well provide higher and more consistent performance levels. A robust yet simple scheme can fuse the decisions produced by the individual biometric experts. In this paper, ...
متن کاملInformation Fusion in Biometrics
User verification systems that use a single biometric indicator often have to contend with noisy sensor data, restricted degrees of freedom, non-universality of the biometric trait and unacceptable error rates. Attempting to improve the performance of individual matchers in such situations may not prove to be effective because of these inherent problems. Multibiometric systems seek to alleviate...

Samodejno razpoznavanje (avtentikacija/identifikacija) obrazov predstavlja eno najaktivnejših raziskovalnih področij biometrije. Avtentikacija oz. identifikacija oseb z razpoznavanjem obrazov ponuja možen način povečanja varnosti pri različnih dejavnostih, (npr. pri elektronskem poslovanju na medmrežju, pri bančnih storitvah ali pri vstopu v določene prostore, stavbe in države). Ponuja univerza...
