Face Detection by Learned Affine Correspondences
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a novel framework for detecting human faces based on correspondences between triplets of detected local features and their counterparts in an affine invariant face appearance model. The method is robust to partial occlusion, feature detector failure and copes well with cluttered background. Both the appearance and configuration probabilities are learned from examples. The method was tested on the XM2VTS database and a limited number of images with cluttered background with promising results – 2% false negative rate – was obtained.

Geometric Blur for Template Matching
We address the problem of finding point correspondences in images by way of an approach to template matching that is robust under affine distortions. This is achieved by applying “geometric blur” to both the template and the image, resulting in a fall-off in similarity that is close to linear in the norm of the distortion between the template and the image. Results in wide baseline stereo corre...
متن کاملUsing Geometric Blur for Point Correspondence
In computer vision applications, point correspondence plays an important role. Here, we present a technique called geometric blur to find point correspondences between two different images, even in the presence of affine distortions. We compare the results of this technique with other prevalent techniques for finding point correspondences, such as SSD (Sum of Squared Differences) with uniform G...
متن کاملA Novel Face Detection Method Based on Over-complete Incoherent Dictionary Learning
In this paper, face detection problem is considered using the concepts of compressive sensing technique. This technique includes dictionary learning procedure and sparse coding method to represent the structural content of input images. In the proposed method, dictionaries are learned in such a way that the trained models have the least degree of coherence to each other. The novelty of the prop...
متن کاملAutomatic Partial Face Alignment in NIR Video Sequences
Face recognition with partial face images is an important problem in face biometrics. The necessity can arise in not so constrained environments such as in surveillance video, or portal video as provided in Multiple Biometrics Grand Challenge (MBGC). Face alignment with partial face images is a key step toward this challenging problem. In this paper, we present a method for partial face alignme...
متن کاملFace Recognition using an Affine Sparse Coding approach
Sparse coding is an unsupervised method which learns a set of over-complete bases to represent data such as image and video. Sparse coding has increasing attraction for image classification applications in recent years. But in the cases where we have some similar images from different classes, such as face recognition applications, different images may be classified into the same class, and hen...
