Evaluation of LDA based face verification with respect to available computational resources

چکیده
In this study, we are interested in a face verification or authentication system based on Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant Analysis (known as Fisherfaces). We evaluate the tradeoff between performance and computational requirements of making a decision in such a biometric system. This kind of evaluation is useful when implementing a practical system where the CPU power and storage space are of concern, such as a biometric system coupled with smart cards. Our results, on the standard XM2VTS database, show that the performance stays constant in a broad range of image resolutions (down to 256 pixel gray-level images) and client model sizes (down to 20 real numbers). When using 64 pixel images, the error rates are still acceptable for a mediumto low-security application or to be combined with other biometric algorithms. These results suggest that this method uses only low-frequency information to make a decision.

متن کاملFusion of LDA and PCA for Face Verification
Although face verification systems have proven to be reliable in ideal environments, they can be very sensitive to real environmental conditions. The system robustness can be increased by the fusion of different face verification algorithms. To the best of our knowledge, no face verification system tried exploiting the fusion of LDA and PCA. In our opinion, the apparent strong correlation of LD...
متن کاملNonparametric Face Verification Using a Novel Face Representation
We present a novel face representation based on locally adaptive regression kernel (LARK) descriptors [1]. Our LARK descriptor measures a self-similarity based on “signal-induced distance” between a center pixel and surrounding pixels in a local neighborhood. By applying principle component analysis (PCA) and a logistic function to LARK consecutively, we develop a new binary-like face represent...
