چکیده

This paper describes a fast and robust Gabor feature based approach for face recognition. The most discriminative Gabor features are selected by the AdaBoost procedure, which are then subjected to the Generalized Discriminant Analysis (GDA) process for further class separability enhancement. Compared with the huge number of features used by typical classification algorithms using Gabor fiters, our method needs only two hundred Gabor features. Whilst significant memory and computation cost has been reduced, our method still achieves very high recognition accuracy. 600 frontal facial images from the FERET database, with expression and illumination variations, are used to test the system. Only 4 seconds are required to recognize 200 face images, 97% accuracy has been achieved.

تشخیص چهره با استفاده از PCA و فیلتر گابور

Methods for face recognition which are based on face structure are among techniques without supervision and produce unfavorable results in the presence of linear changes in images. PCA is a linear transform and a powerful tool for data analysis but does not produce good results for face recognition when there are non-linear changes resulting from changes in position, intensity and gesture in th...

Robust Face Recognition using AAM and Gabor Features

In this paper, we propose a face recognition algorithm using AAM and Gabor features. Gabor feature vectors which are well known to be robust with respect to small variations of shape, scaling, rotation, distortion, illumination and poses in images are popularly employed for feature vectors for many object detection and recognition algorithms. EBGM, which is prominent among face recognition algo...

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...

MutualBoost learning for selecting Gabor features for face recognition

This paper describes an improved boosting algorithm, the MutualBoost algorithm, and its application in developing a fast and robust Gabor feature based face recognition system. The algorithm uses mutual information to eliminate redundancy among Gabor features selected using the AdaBoost algorithm. Selected Gabor features are then subjected to Generalized Discriminant Analysis (GDA) for class se...

Disguised 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 ...
