چکیده

This paper describes a novel method LogAbout to compensate variety of illumination in face detection. The highlight and shadow parts of the image are rendered further away from the transformation we proposed, thus increasing the image contrast. Some traditional methods based on spatial-domain are introduced in this paper. Experiments and Comparisons with each scheme we introduced are presented. The results of experiment data show that the correctly detected rate is obviously increased after illumination compensation with the scheme LogAbout. This idea can solve the illumination compensation problem quickly and efficiently, which fits for detecting face automatically and tracking face in real time. The idea LogAbout proposed in this paper can also contribute to general image processing, object detection and recognition.

A Novel Face Detection Method Based on Over-complete Incoherent Dictionary Learning

In this paper, face detection problem is considered using the concepts of compressive sensing technique. This technique includes dictionary learning procedure and sparse coding method to represent the structural content of input images. In the proposed method, dictionaries are learned in such a way that the trained models have the least degree of coherence to each other. The novelty of the prop...

Multi-View Face Detection in Open Environments using Gabor Features and Neural Networks

Multi-view face detection in open environments is a challenging task, due to the wide variations in illumination, face appearances and occlusion. In this paper, a robust method for multi-view face detection in open environments, using a combination of Gabor features and neural networks, is presented. Firstly, the effect of changing the Gabor filter parameters (orientation, frequency, standard d...

Shadow compensation in 2D images for face recognition

Illumination variation that occurs on face images degrades the performance of face recognition. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to handling illumination variation for face recognition. Since most human faces are similar in shape, we can find the shadow characteristics, which the illumination variation makes on the faces depending on the direction of light. By using these characterist...
