Bio-inspired Face Authentication using Multiscale LBP
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a new approach to recognize 2D faces. This approach is based on experiments performed in the field of cognitive science to understand how people recognize a face. To extract features, the image is first decomposed on a base of wavelets using four-level Difference Of Gaussians (DOGs) functions which are a good modeling of human visual system; then different Regions Of Interest (ROIs) are selected on each scale, related to the cognitive method we refer to. After that, Local Binary Patterns (LBP) histograms are computed on each block of the ROIs and concatenated to form the final feature vector. Matching is performed by means of a weighted distance. Weighting coefficients are chosen based on results of psychovisual experiments in which the task assigned to observers was to recognize people. Proposed approach was tested on IV2 database and experimental results prove its efficiency when compared to classical face recognition algorithms.

Face Authentication Using Adapted Local Binary Pattern Histograms
In this paper, we propose a novel generative approach for face authentication, based on a Local Binary Pattern (LBP) description of the face. A generic face model is considered as a collection of LBP-histograms. Then, a client-specific model is obtained by an adaptation technique from this generic model under a probabilistic framework. We compare the proposed approach to standard state-of-the-a...
متن کاملDetection of Video-Based Face Spoofing Using LBP and Multiscale DCT
Despite the great deal of progress during the recent years, face spoofing detection is still a focus of attention. In this paper, an effective, simple and time-saving countermeasure against video-based face spoofing attacks based on LBP (Local Binary Patterns) and multiscale DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) is proposed. Adopted as the low-level descriptors, LBP features are used to extract spati...

In this paper we describe a novel noise-robust texture classification method using joint multiscale local binary pattern. The first step in texture classification is to describe the texture by extracting different features. So far, several methods have been developed for this topic, one of the most popular ones is Local Binary Pattern (LBP) method and its variants such as Completed Local Binary...
متن کاملImage authentication using LBP-based perceptual image hashing
Feature extraction is a main step in all perceptual image hashing schemes in which robust features will led to better results in perceptual robustness. Simplicity, discriminative power, computational efficiency and robustness to illumination changes are counted as distinguished properties of Local Binary Pattern features. In this paper, we investigate the use of local binary patterns for percep...
متن کاملLearning Multi-scale Block Local Binary Patterns for Face Recognition
In this paper, we propose a novel representation, called Multiscale Block Local Binary Pattern (MB-LBP), and apply it to face recognition. The Local Binary Pattern (LBP) has been proved to be effective for image representation, but it is too local to be robust. InMB-LBP, the computation is done based on average values of block subregions, instead of individual pixels. In this way, MB-LBP code p...
