چکیده

The use of Three Dimensional (3D) data allows new facial recognition algorithms to overcome factors such as pose and illumination variations which have plagued traditional 2D Face Recognition. In this paper a new method for providing insensitivity to expression variation in range images based on Log-Gabor Templates is presented. By decomposing a single image of a subject into 147 observations the reliance of the algorithm upon any particular part of the face is relaxed allowing high accuracy even in the presence of occulusions, distortions and facial expressions. Using the 3D database collected by University of Notre Dame for the Face Recognition Grand Challenge (FRGC), benchmarking results are presented showing superior performance of the proposed method. Comparisons showing the relative strength of the algorithm against two commercial and two academic 3D face recognition algoritms are also presented.

Gabor and Log-Gabor Wavelet for Face Recognition

In practice Gabor wavelet is often applied to extract relevant features from a facial image. This wavelet is constructed using filters of multiple scales and orientations. Based on Gabor’s theory of communication, two methods are proposed to acquire initial features from 2D images that are Gabor wavelet and Log-Gabor wavelet. Theoretically the main difference between these two wavelets is Log-G...

A robust phase information extraction using 2-D quadrature filtering (monogenic and 2D-Log Gabor) and modified HD for matching

Abstract— The human iris recognition system is an attractive technology for identity authentication. This technology benefits from random variations in the features of the iris. Usually, an iris recognition system has 4 modules: segmentation, normalization, feature extraction and iris templates matching. This work is mainly focused on iris texture analysis and templates matching which are 2 ess...

Textural feature based face recognition for single training images

A novel face recognition algorithm using single training face image is proposed. The algorithm is based on textural features extracted using the 2D log Gabor wavelet. These features are encoded into a binary pattern to form a face template which is used for matching. Experimental results show that on the colour FERET database the accuracy of the proposed algorithm is higher than the local featu...

Biologically-based Face Recognition using Gabor Filters and Log-Polar Images

A face recognition system that uses Log-Polar Images and Gabor Filters is here proposed. This system models the way in which face images are processed between the retina and the areas V1 and V2 of our visual system. Some simulations of the recognition abilities of the system are also presented.

Recognition of Face Expression using Color Space

Face expression recognition can be stated as „identifying the expression of an individual from images of the face‟. Most of the existing systems of facial expression recognition focus on gray scale image features. This paper describes the novel approaches for effectively recognizing the facial expressions. In facial expression recognition (FER) framework, initially the face region of the image ...
