Abstract:

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 proposed method involves the learning of comprehensive models with atoms that have the highest atom/data coherence with the training data and the lowest within-class and between-class coherence parameters. Each of these goals can be achieved through the proposed procedures. In order to achieve the desired results, a variety of features are extracted from the images and used to learn the characteristics of face and non-face images. Also, the results of the proposed classifier based on the incoherent dictionary learning technique are compared with the results obtained from the other common classifiers such as neural network and support vector machine. Simulation results, along with a significance statistical test show that the proposed method based on the incoherent models learned by the combinational features is able to detect the face regions with high accuracy rate.

A Novel Image Denoising Method Based on Incoherent Dictionary Learning and Domain Adaptation Technique

In this paper, a new method for image denoising based on incoherent dictionary learning and domain transfer technique is proposed. The idea of using sparse representation concept is one of the most interesting areas for researchers. The goal of sparse coding is to approximately model the input data as a weighted linear combination of a small number of basis vectors. Two characteristics should b...

A New Method for Speech Enhancement Based on Incoherent Model Learning in Wavelet Transform Domain

Quality of speech signal significantly reduces in the presence of environmental noise signals and leads to the imperfect performance of hearing aid devices, automatic speech recognition systems, and mobile phones. In this paper, the single channel speech enhancement of the corrupted signals by the additive noise signals is considered. A dictionary-based algorithm is proposed to train the speech...

A Novel Face Spoofing Detection Method Based on Gaze Estimation

Since gaze is a kind of behavioral biometrics which is difficult to be detected by the surveillance due to the ambiguity of visual attention process, it can be used as a clue for anti-spoofing. This work provides the first investigation in research literature on the use of gaze estimation for face spoofing detection. Firstly, a gaze estimation model mapping the gaze feature to gaze position is ...

Learning Incoherent Subspaces: Classification via Incoherent Dictionary Learning

In this article we present the supervised iterative projections and rotations (s-ipr) algorithm, a method for learning discriminative incoherent subspaces from data. We derive s-ipr as a supervised extension of our previously proposed iterative projections and rotations (ipr) algorithm for incoherent dictionary learning, and we employ it to learn incoherent sub-spaces that model signals belongi...

Sparse signal subspace decomposition based on adaptive over-complete dictionary

This paper proposes a subspace decomposition method based on an over-complete dictionary in sparse representation, called “sparse signal subspace decomposition” (or 3SD) method. This method makes use of a novel criterion based on the occurrence frequency of atoms of the dictionary over the data set. This criterion, well adapted to subspace decomposition over a dependent basis set, adequately re...
