Matching face images across different modalities is a challenging open problem for various reasons, notably feature heterogeneity, and particularly in the case of sketch recognition – abstraction, exaggeration and distortion. Existing studies have attempted to address this task by engineering invariant features, or learning a common subspace between the modalities. In this paper, we take a diff...

a r t i c l e i n f o This study examines two phenomena related to face perception, both of which depend on experience and holistic processing: perceivers process faces more efficiently in the right hemisphere of the brain (a hemispheric asymmetry), and they typically show greater recognition accuracy for members of their racial ingroup (a cross-race recognition deficit). The current study test...

The own-age bias (OAB) refers to recognition memory being more accurate for people of our own age than other age groups (e.g., Wright and Stroud, 2002). This paper investigated whether the OAB effect is present during construction of human faces (also known as facial composites, often for forensic/police use). In doing so, it adds to our understanding of factors influencing both facial memory a...

This paper proposes a new approach for face verification, where a pair of images needs to be classified as belonging to the same person or not. This problem is relatively new and not well-explored in the literature. Current methods mostly adopt techniques borrowed from face recognition, and process each of the images in the pair independently, which is counter intuitive. In contrast, we propose...

The face recognition systems are used to recognize the person by using merely a person’s image. The face detection scheme is the primary method which is used to extract the region of interest (ROI). The ROI is further processed under the face recognition scheme. In the proposed model, we are going to use the cross-correlation algorithm along with the viola jones for the purpose of face recognit...

Automatic face recognition capability in surveillance systems is important for security applications. However, few studies have addressed the problem of outdoor face recognition at a long distance (over 100 meters) in both daytime and nighttime environments. In this paper, we first report on a system that we have designed to collect face image database at a long distance, called the Long Distan...
