Independent Components of Face Images: a Representation for Face Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods for obtaining representations of face images based on independent component analysis (ICA) are presented. A global ICA representation is compared to a global representation based on principal component analysis (PCA) for recognizing faces across changes in lighting and changes in pose. For each set of face images, a set of statistically independent source images was found through an unsupervised learning algorithm that maximized the mutual information between the input and the output of a nonlinear transformation (Bell & Sejnowski, 1995). These source images comprised the kernels for the representation. The independent component kernels gave superior class discriminability to the principal component kernels. Recognition across changes in pose with the ICA representation was 93%, compared to 87% with a PCA representation, and across changes in lighting ICA gave 100% correct recognition, compared to 90% with PCA.

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...
متن کاملFace Recognition in Thermal Images based on Sparse Classifier
Despite recent advances in face recognition systems, they suffer from serious problems because of the extensive types of changes in human face (changes like light, glasses, head tilt, different emotional modes). Each one of these factors can significantly reduce the face recognition accuracy. Several methods have been proposed by researchers to overcome these problems. Nonetheless, in recent ye...
متن کاملIterative 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...

In this paper, a new Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based face recognition system is proposed. As a novel point despite of five-state HMM used in pervious researches, we used 7-state HMM to cover more details. Indeed we add two new face regions, eyebrows and chin, to the model. As another novel point, we used a small number of quantized Singular Values Decomposition (SVD) coefficients as feature...
