Face extraction from non-uniform background and recognition in compressed domain
نویسندگان
چکیده
A complete face recognition system is proposed in this paper by introducing the concepts of foreground objects, which are currently used in the MPEG-4 standardization phase, to human identification. The system automatically detects and extracts the human face from the background, even if is not uniform, based on a combination of a retrainable neural network structure and the morphological size distribution technique. In order to combine face images of high quality and low computational complexity, the recognition stage is performed in compressed domain. Thus, in contrast to existing recognition schemes, the face images are available in their original quality and not only in their transformed representation.

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...
متن کاملSupervised Feature Extraction of Face Images for Improvement of Recognition Accuracy
Dimensionality reduction methods transform or select a low dimensional feature space to efficiently represent the original high dimensional feature space of data. Feature reduction techniques are an important step in many pattern recognition problems in different fields especially in analyzing of high dimensional data. Hyperspectral images are acquired by remote sensors and human face images ar...
متن کاملVideo Abstraction in H.264/AVC Compressed Domain
Video abstraction allows searching, browsing and evaluating videos only by accessing the useful contents. Most of the studies are using pixel domain, which requires the decoding process and needs more time and process consuming than compressed domain video abstraction. In this paper, we present a new video abstraction method in H.264/AVC compressed domain, AVAIF. The method is based on the norm...
متن کاملDisguised Face Recognition by Using Local Phase Quantization and Singular Value Decomposition
Disguised face recognition is a major challenge in the field of face recognition which has been taken less attention. Therefore, in this paper a disguised face recognition algorithm based on Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) method and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is presented which deals with two main challenges. The first challenge is when an individual intentionally alters the appearance ...
متن کاملFace recognition in JPEG and JPEG2000 compressed domain
In this paper we investigate the potential of performing face recognition in JPEG and JPEG2000 compressed domain. This is achieved by avoiding full decompression and using transform coefficients as input to face recognition algorithms. We propose a new comparison methodology and by employing it show that face recognition can efficiently be implemented directly into compressed domain. In the fir...
