Flexible multi-classifier architecture for face recognition systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents face recognition results obtained using a multi-classifier system (MCS) with Borda count voting. Experiments were conducted on complete sections of the FERET face database with 4 different algorithms: embedded HMM, DCT, EigenFaces and EigenObjects. Particular classifier ensembles yielded almost 6% of improvement over the individual techniques. In order to facilitate experiments on classifier combinations and decision rules comparison, a flexible MCS software architecture based on object oriented principles is also presented. It allows runtime modifications to the algorithms employed and dynamical selection of classifiers. This architecture can be applied to any pattern recognition problem.

Face Recognition in Thermal Images based on Sparse Classifier
Despite recent advances in face recognition systems, they suffer from serious problems because of the extensive types of changes in human face (changes like light, glasses, head tilt, different emotional modes). Each one of these factors can significantly reduce the face recognition accuracy. Several methods have been proposed by researchers to overcome these problems. Nonetheless, in recent ye...

A comparative recognition performance of LDAand ICA-based multiple classifier systems for face recognition is presented using vertically and horizontally partitioned facial images. A face image is partitioned into several vertical and horizontal segments and a multiple classifier based divide-and-conquer approach is used to combine these segments to recognize the whole face. The experiments dem...
