Reducing the Dimensionality of Face Space in a Sparse Distributed Local-Features Representation

چکیده

Low-dimensional representations of sensory signals are key to solving many of the computational problems encountered in high-level vision. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been used in the past to provide a global representation with a dimensionality as small as 400 of both images of human faces and their probabilities. Local Feature Analysis (LFA) is a biologically-motivated method that has been shown to preserve all the desirable properties of PCA, and also build a more intuitive and efficient, sparsedistributed representation of faces in terms of flexible templates of local features. Here we study the properties of LFA as a probability model, and show that the dimensionality of the LFA representation is three times smaller than that of PCA. We discuss the implications for both compression and recognition algorithms.

Nonparametric Spectral-Spatial Anomaly Detection

Due to abundant spectral information contained in the hyperspectral images, they are suitable data for anomalous targets detection. The use of spatial features in addition to spectral ones can improve the anomaly detection performance. An anomaly detector, called nonparametric spectral-spatial detector (NSSD), is proposed in this work which utilizes the benefits of spatial features and local st...

Iterative Weighted Non-smooth Non-negative Matrix Factorization for Face Recognition

Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method. It comes from the intuitive idea that entire face image can be constructed by combining several parts. In this paper, we propose a framework for face recognition by finding localized, part-based representations, denoted “Iterative weighted non-smooth non-negative matrix factorization” (IWNS-NMF). A new cost fun...

Redundancy and Dimensionality Reduction in Sparse-Distributed Representations of Natural Objects in Terms of Their Local Features

Low-dimensional representations are key to solving problems in highlevel vision, such as face compression and recognition. Factorial coding strategies for reducing the redundancy present in natural images on the basis of their second-order statistics have been successful in accounting for both psychophysical and neurophysiological properties of early vision. Class-specific representations are p...
