چکیده

In this paper we propose a new face recognition system based on a biologically-inspired filtering method. Our work differs from previous proposals in (1) the multi-stage filtering method employed, in (2) the pyramid structure used, and most importantly, in (3) the prototype construction scheme to determine the models stored in memory. The method is much simpler than previous proposals and relatively inexpensive computationally, while attaining error rates as low as 5%, very close to the best reported results.

Learning Deep Face Representation

Face representation is a crucial step of face recognition systems. An optimal face representation should be discriminative, robust, compact, and very easyto-implement. While numerous hand-crafted and learning-based representations have been proposed, considerable room for improvement is still present. In this paper, we present a very easy-to-implement deep learning framework for face representa...

Higher order image pyramids: an early visual representation

The scale invariant property of an ensemble of natural images is examined, which motivates a new early visual representation termed the higher order pyramid. The representation is a non-linear generalization of the Laplacian pyramid, tuned to the type of scale invariance exhibited by natural imagery as opposed to other scale invariant images such as 1/f correlated noise and the step edge. The t...

Iterative 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...

PLBP: An effective local binary patterns texture descriptor with pyramid representation

Local binary pattern (LBP) is an effective texture descriptor which has successful applications in texture classification and face recognition. Many extensions are made for conventional LBP descriptors. One of the extensions is dominant local binary patterns which aim at extracting the dominant local structures in texture images. The second extension is representing LBP descriptors in Gabor tra...
