چکیده

We present a novel eye localization method which can be used in face recognition applications. It is based on two SVM classifiers which localize the eyes at different resolution levels exploiting the Haar wavelet representation of the images. We present an extensive analysis of its performance on images of very different public databases, showing very good results. Mathematics Subject Classification. 68T10, 68T45.

A Novel Eye Localization Method for Face Recognition

In this paper we introduce a fast, robust, accurate eye localization algorithm. Detecting and normalizing human faces from live video streams is the first crucial step in a face verification/recognition system. The accuracy and robustness affect the performance of the following face registration and classification. To localize face regions properly, we detect eye corners by using a corner detec...

A Fast Localization and Feature Extraction Method Based on Wavelet Transform in Iris Recognition

With an increasing emphasis on security, automated personal identification based on biometrics has been receiving extensive attention. Iris recognition, as an emerging biometric recognition approach, is becoming a very active topic in both research and practical applications. In general, a typical iris recognition system includes iris imaging, iris liveness detection, and recognition. This rese...

Impact of eye detection error on face recognition performance

The locations of the eyes are the most commonly used features to perform face normalization (i. e., alignment of facial features), which is an essential preprocessing stage of many face recognition systems. In this paper, we study the sensitivity of open source implementations of five face recognition algorithms to misalignment caused by eye localization errors. We investigate the ambiguity in ...

A New Method for Eye Detection in Color Images

The problem of eye detection in face images is very important for a large number of applications ranging from face recognition to gaze tracking. In this paper we propose a new algorithm for eyes detection. First, the face region is extracted from the image by skin-color information. Second, horizontal projection in image is used to approximate region of the eye be obtained . At last, the eye ce...

Eye localization: a survey

In this survey we first discuss the importance of eye localization as the initialization step for many face processing techniques, then we further show the influence of the localization precision on the rate achieved by some baseline face recognition techniques. To do so, we give the definition of the objective error measures already known in literature. A brief review of some state-of-the-art ...
