Face recognition has recently been the centre of attention of many researchers (Jain et al. 2004). The earliest work in digital face recognition was reported by Bledsoe in 1964. Statistical face recognition systems such as principal component analysis (PCA) based eigenfaces introduced by Turk and Pentland in 1991, attracted lots of attention. Fisherfaces method based on linear discriminant anal...

Lumen Social Robot is a humanoid robot development with the purpose that it could be a good friend to all people. In this year, the Lumen Social Robot is being developed into a guide in the exhibition and in the seminar of the Final Exam of undergraduate and graduate students in Electrical Engineering ITB, named Electrical Engineering Days 2015. In order to be the guide in that occasion, Lumen ...

In this paper, an evolutionary genetic algorithm is used to generate face sketch from the face description. Face sketch generation without face image is extremely important for the law enforcement agencies. The genetic algorithm is used for generating face sketch through several iterations of the algorithm. The face image description is captured through graphical user interface just by clicking...

Face recognition is one of biometric methods identifying individuals by the features of face. Research in this area has been conducted for more than 30 years; as a result, the current status of face recognition technology is well advanced. Many commercial applications of face recognition are also available such as criminal identification, security system, image and film processing. From the seq...

Far-field face detection is the first step of automatic face recognition in video surveillance. In this paper, we propose a framework on extraction of high-resolution images in video that subjects are far from camera. To guarantee the tradeoff between accuracy and speed, our method uses four techniques including motion detection using Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs), skin model detection and Ada...
