Disguised face recognition is a major challenge in the field of face recognition which has been taken less attention. Therefore, in this paper a disguised face recognition algorithm based on Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) method and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is presented which deals with two main challenges. The first challenge is when an individual intentionally alters the appearance ...

Face recognition software is being used more often in a wide range of applications, but worries about privacy and exploitation have sparked interest creating methods for "disguised" face identification. The use neural networks disguised identification has recently attracted the attention academics, who trained their algorithms on pictures people with masks, hats, other facial coverings. Yet, th...

In order to study face recognition in relative isolation from visual processes that may also contribute to object recognition and reading, we investigated CK, a man with normal face recognition but with object agnosia and dyslexia caused by a closed-head injury. We administered recognition tests of upright faces, of family resemblance, of agetransformed faces, of caricatures, of cartoons, of in...

Face recognition is a rapidly growing research area due to increasing demands for security in commercial and law enforcement applications. This paper provides an up-to-date review of research efforts in face recognition techniques based on two-dimensional (2D) images in the visual and infrared (IR) spectra. Face recognition systems based on visual images have reached a significant level of matu...

A program for carrying out research on the speaker recognition of disguised voices is proposed. Such a program would consist of the following: 1) Definition and classification of disguises 2) Creation of databases of disguised voices 3) Testing of conventional speaker recognition systems on the disguised-voice database 4) The investigation of which basic methods of modeling the vocal tract -HMM...

Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank all IRIS Lab members. I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Mongi Abidi. His willingness to support my work and his guidance throughout my studies has allowed me to develop my skills as a face recognition researcher within a supportive team environment. Abstract This paper describes how fusion of visual and thermal face recognition can increa...

In two studies (Ns = 87 and 91) we explored how varying the degree of two types of disguise (stocking mask, or sunglasses and toque [i.e., knitted hat]) affects lineup decisions and confidence from simultaneous and sequential lineups. Correct identifications decreased as the disguise covered more of the mock perpetrator’s face, supporting the conclusion that disguises reduce the amount of infor...
