چکیده

Changing illumination causes severe problems for face recognition in uncontrolled environments. It might be helpful for illumination invariant face recognition if information about the illumination can be recovered from the given face image. In this paper an illumination classification method based on Non-negative Matrix Factorization(NMF) is proposed. The traditional NMF approach together with its few variants are investigated to classify an unknown illumination to one of the illumination conditions present in the training set. Encouraging results have been achieved on CMU-PIE face database which contains faces under various illumination conditions.

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...

Classifying Faces with Non-negative Matrix Factorization

This paper addresses the well-known problem of recognizing faces under several unfavorable situations. We have analyzed situations with changes in expression, in illumination and occlusions such as faces wearing sunglasses or scarfs. We have introduced the use of the Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) technique in the context of classification of face images and we have directly compared p...

A new approach for building recommender system using non negative matrix factorization method

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization is a new approach to reduce data dimensions. In this method, by applying the nonnegativity of the matrix data, the matrix is ​​decomposed into components that are more interrelated and divide the data into sections where the data in these sections have a specific relationship. In this paper, we use the nonnegative matrix factorization to decompose the user ratin...

Non-negative matrix factorization framework for face recognition

Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method which adds a non-negativity constraint to matrix factorization. NMF is compatible with the intuitive notion of combining parts to form a whole face. In this paper, we propose a framework of face recognition by adding NMF constraint and classifier constraints to matrix factorization to get both intuitive features...

A survey: face recognition techniques under partial occlusion

Systems that rely on Face Recognition (FR) biometric have gained great importance ever since terrorist threats imposed weakness among the implemented security systems. Other biometrics i.e., fingerprints or iris recognition is not trustworthy in such situations whereas FR is considered as a fine compromise. This survey illustrates different FR practices that laid foundations on the issue of par...
