Discriminative Regions for Human Face Detection ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a robust method for face detection based on the assumption that face can be represented by arrangements of automatically detectable discriminative regions. The appearance of face is modelled statistically in terms of local photometric information and the spatial relationship of the discriminative regions. The spatial relationship between these regions serves mainly as a preliminary evidence for the hypothesis that a face is present in a particular position. The final decision is carried out using the complete information from the whole image patch. The results are very promising.

Thermal to Visible Synthesis of Face Images using Multiple Regions
Synthesis of visible spectrum faces from thermal facial imagery is a promising approach for heterogeneous face recognition; enabling existing face recognition software trained on visible imagery to be leveraged, and allowing human analysts to verify cross-spectrum matches more effectively. We propose a new synthesis method to enhance the discriminative quality of synthesized visible face imager...
متن کاملFast Learning for Statistical Face Detection
In this paper, we propose a novel learning method for face detection using discriminative feature selection. The main deficiency of the boosting algorithm for face detection is its long training time. Through statistical learning theory, our discriminative feature selection method can make the training process for face detection much faster than the boosting algorithm without degrading the gene...
متن کاملCombination of Face Regions in Forensic Scenarios.
This article presents an experimental analysis of the combination of different regions of the human face on various forensic scenarios to generate scientific knowledge useful for the forensic experts. Three scenarios of interest at different distances are considered comparing mugshot and CCTV face images using MORPH and SC face databases. One of the main findings is that inner facial regions co...
متن کاملWeighted Voting of Discriminative Regions for Face Recognition
This paper presents a strategy, Weighted Voting of Discriminative Regions (WVDR), to improve the face recognition performance, especially in Small Sample Size (SSS) and occlusion situations. In WVDR, we extract the discriminative regions according to facial key points and abandon the rest parts. Considering different regions of face make different contributions to recognition, we assign weights...
متن کاملIdentification using face regions: application and assessment in forensic scenarios.
This paper reports an exhaustive analysis of the discriminative power of the different regions of the human face on various forensic scenarios. In practice, when forensic examiners compare two face images, they focus their attention not only on the overall similarity of the two faces. They carry out an exhaustive morphological comparison region by region (e.g., nose, mouth, eyebrows, etc.). In ...
