Learning shape and texture progression for young child face aging

Face aging (FA) for young faces refers to rendering the aging faces at target age for an individual, generally under 20s, which is an important topic of facial age analysis. Unlike traditional FA for adults, it is challenging to age children with one deep learning-based FA network, since there are deformations of facial shapes and variations of textural details. To alleviate the deficiency, a unified FA framework for young faces is proposed, which consists of two decoupled networks to apply aging image translation. It explicitly models transformations of geometry and appearance using two components: GD-GAN, which simulates the Geometric Deformation using Generative Adversarial Network; TV-GAN, which simulates the Textural Variations guided by the age-related saliency map. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method has advantages over the state-of-the-art methods in terms of synthesizing visually plausible images for young faces, as well as preserving the personalized features.     

Solving the small sample size problem in face recognition using generalized discriminant analysis

The goal of face recognition is to distinguish persons via their facial images. Each person's images form a cluster, and a new image is recognized by assigning it to the correct cluster. Since the images are very high-dimensional, it is necessary to reduce their dimension. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) has been shown to be effective at dimension reduction while preserving the cluster structure of the data. It is classically defined as an optimization problem involving covariance matrices that represent the scatter within and between clusters. The requirement that one of these matrices be nonsingular restricts its application to datasets in which the dimension of the data does not exceed the sample size. For face recognition, however, the dimension typically exceeds the number of images in the database, resulting in what is referred to as the small sample size problem. Recently, the applicability of LDA has been extended by using the generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD) to circumvent the nonsingularity requirement, thus making LDA directly applicable to face recognition data. Our experiments confirm that LDA/GSVD solves the small sample size problem very effectively as compared with other current methods.

A Multi-View Face Recognition System

In many automatic face recognition systems,posture constraining is a key factor preventing them from application.In this paper a series of strategies will be described to achieve a system which enables face recognition under varying pose.These approaches include the multi-view face modeling,the threschold image based face feature detection,the affine transformation based face posture normalization and the template matching based face identification.Combining all of these strategies,a face recognition system with the pose invariance is designed successfully,Using a 75MHZ Pentium PC and with a database of 75 individuals,15 images for each person,and 225 test images with various postures,a very good recognition rate of 96.89% is obtained.     

Subspace distance analysis with application to adaptive Bayesian algorithm for face recognition

We propose subspace distance measures to analyze the similarity between intrapersonal face subspaces, which characterize the variations between face images of the same individual. We call the conventional intrapersonal subspace average intrapersonal subspace (AIS) because the image differences often come from a large number of persons. An intrapersonal subspace is referred to as specific intrapersonal subspace (SIS) if the image differences are from just one person. We demonstrate that SIS varies significantly from person to person, and most SISs are not similar to AIS. Based on these observations, we introduce the maximum a posteriori (MAP) adaptation to the problem of SIS estimation, and apply it to the Bayesian face recognition algorithm. Experimental results show that the adaptive Bayesian algorithm outperforms the non-adaptive Bayesian algorithm as well as Eigenface and Fisherface methods if a small number of adaptation images are available.

基于特征互补图像的人脸识别仿真研究

研究人脸识别精度问题。由于人脸图像中存在大量干扰信息的缺点,而造成了人脸识别正确率下降,为了解决上述问题,提出了一种基于特征互补图像快速特征融合算法。算法通过对人脸图像的位平面切片图像分析,采用位平面图像分解法,通过各种合成策略构造多幅样本图像。并突出高位平面图像,采用两种加权策略将每一幅人脸图像样本都生成"特征互补图像"。然后,直接用图像的二维典型相关分析(2DCCA)法对两种特征互补图像进行特征抽取。最后通过在ORL国际标准人脸库上进行的实验,结果表明,高位平面图像的典型相关鉴别特征提高了正确识别率,并且因为摒弃了原始人脸图像的大部分干扰信息所以具有更强的鲁棒性。
