چکیده

In this paper, a comparative study between standard linear subspace techniques such as eigenfaces and fisherfaces and a novel morphological elastic graph matching for frontal face verification is presented. A set of experiments has been conducted in the M2VTS database in order to investigate the performance of each algorithm in different image alignment conditions. The experimental results indicate the superiority of the novel morphological elastic graph matching against all the other presented techniques.

Using Support Vector Machines for Face Authentication Based on Elastic Graph Matching

In this paper, a novel method for enhancing the performance of elastic graph matching in face authentication is proposed. Our objective is to weigh the local matching errors at the nodes of an elastic graph according to their discriminatory power. We propose a novel approach to discriminant analysis that re-formulates Fisher’s Linear Discriminant ratio to a quadratic optimization problem subjec...

Morphological elastic graph matching applied to frontal face authentication under well-controlled and real conditions

In this paper, morphological elastic graph matching is applied to frontal face authentication on databases ranging from small to large multimedia ones collected under either well-controlled or real-world conditions. It is shown that the morphological elastic graph matching achieves a very low equal error rate on databases collected under well-controlled conditions. However, its performance dete...
