Automatic Face Recognition of Video Sequences Using Self- Eigenfaces

چکیده
The objective of this work is to provide an efficient face recognition scheme useful for video indexing applications. In particular we are addressing the following problem: given a set of known images and given a video sequence to be indexed, find where the corresponding persons appear in the sequence. Conventional face detection schemes are not well suited for this application and alternate and more efficient schemes have to be developed. In this paper we have modified our original generic eigenface-based recognition scheme presented in [1] by introducing the concept of selfeigenfaces. The resulting scheme is very efficient to find specific face images and to cope with the different face conditions present in a video sequence. The main and final objective is to develop a tool to be used in the MPEG-7 standardization effort to help video indexing activities. Good results have been obtained using the video test sequences used in the MPEG-7 evaluation group.

Face Recognition of Video Sequences in a Mpeg-7 Context Using a Global Eigen Approach
An integral scheme that provides a global eigen approach to the problem of face recognition of still images has been presented in [1]. The scheme is based on the representation of the face images using the so called eigenfaces [2], generated performing a PCA (Principal Components Analysis). The data base used was designed for still image recognition and the corresponding images were very contro...

This paper is based on a combination of the principal component analysis (PCA), eigenface and support vector machines. Using N-fold method and with respect to the value of N, any person’s face images are divided into two sections. As a result, vectors of training features and test features are obtain ed. Classification precision and accuracy was examined with three different types of kernel and...

متن کاملA near Real-time Face Recognition System Based on Eigenfaces
In this paper we propose a prototype of a near real-time automatic face recognition system that is aimed for operations in a less constrained environment, using the earliest appearance-based face recognition technique called eigenfaces. The main idea of eigenfaces is to decompose face images into a small set of significant characteristic feature images called eigenvectors, which are the princip...
