Face recognition is one of biometrical research area that is still interesting. This study discusses the Complex-Valued Backpropagation algorithm for face recognition. Complex-Valued Backpropagation is an algorithm modified from Real-Valued Backpropagation algorithm where the weights and activation functions used are complex. The dataset used in this study consist of 250 images that is classified in 5 classes. The performance of face recognition using Complex-Valued Backpropagation is also compared with Real-Valued Backpropagation algorithm. Experimental results have shown that Complex-Valued Backpropagation performance is better than Real-Valued Backpropagation.

Traditionally, a few activation functions have been considered in neural networks, including bounded functions such as threshold, sigmoidal and hyperbolic-tangent, as well as unbounded ReLU, GELU, and Soft-plus, among other functions for deep learning, but the search for new activation functions still being an open research area. In this paper, wavelets are reconsidered as activation functions in neural networks and the performance of Gaussian family wavelets (first, second and third derivatives) are studied together with other functions available in Keras-Tensorflow. Experimental results show how the combination of these activation functions can improve the performance and supports the idea of extending the list of activation functions to wavelets which can be available in high performance platforms.

Appearance-based recognition methods often encounter difficulties when the input images contain facial expression variations such as laughing, crying or wide mouth opening. In these cases, holistic methods give better performance than appearance-based methods. This paper presents some evaluation on face recognition under variation of facial expression  using the combination of PCA and classification algorithms. The experimental results showed that the best accuracy can be obtained with very few eigenvectors and KNN algorithm (with k=1) performs better than SVM in most test cases.

Face recognition is one of the well studied problems by researchers in computer visions.  Among the challenges of this task are the occurrence of different facial expressions like happy or sad, and different views of the images such as front and side views.  This paper experiments a publicly available dataset that consists of 200,000 images of celebrity faces. Deep Learning technique is gaining its popularity in computer vision and this paper applies this technique for face recognition problem.  One of the techniques under deep learning is Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).  There is also pre-trained CNN models that are AlexNet and GoogLeNet, which produce excellent accuracy results.  The experimental results indicate that AlexNet is better than basic CNN and GoogLeNet for face recognition.

One of the key challenges in face perception lies in determining how different facial attributes contribute to judgments of identity. In this study, we focus on the role of color cues. Although color appears to be a salient attribute of faces, past research has suggested that it confers little recognition advantage for identifying people. Here we report experimental results suggesting that color cues do play a role in face recognition and their contribution becomes evident when shape cues are degraded. Under such conditions, recognition performance with color images is significantly better than that with gray-scale images. Our experimental results also indicate that the contribution of color may lie not so much in providing diagnostic cues to identity as in aiding low-level image-analysis processes such as segmentation.

Face recognition is a relatively mature technology, which has some applications in many aspects, and now there are many networks studying it, which has indeed brought a lot of convenience to mankind in all aspects. This paper proposes a new face recognition technology. First, a new GoogLeNet-M network is proposed, which improves network performance on the basis of streamlining the network. Secondly, regularization and migration learning methods are added to improve accuracy. The experimental results show that the GoogLeNet-M network with regularization using migration learning technology has the best performance, with a recall rate of 0.97 and an accuracy of 0.98. Finally, it is concluded that the performance of the GoogLeNet-M network is better than other networks on the dataset, and the migration learning method and regularization help to improve the network performance.

Background: Cell lytic enzyme is a kind of highly evolved protein, which can destroy the cell structure and kill the bacteria. Compared with antibiotics, cell lytic enzyme will not cause serious problem of drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria. Thus, the study of cell wall lytic enzymes aims at finding an efficient way for curing bacteria infectious. Compared with using antibiotics, the problem of drug resistance becomes more serious. Therefore, it is a good choice for curing bacterial infections by using cell lytic enzymes. Cell lytic enzyme includes endolysin and autolysin and the difference between them is the purpose of the break of cell wall. The identification of the type of cell lytic enzymes is meaningful for the study of cell wall enzymes. Objective: In this article, our motivation is to predict the type of cell lytic enzyme. Cell lytic enzyme is helpful for killing bacteria, so it is meaningful for study the type of cell lytic enzyme. However, it is time consuming to detect the type of cell lytic enzyme by experimental methods. Thus, an efficient computational method for the type of cell lytic enzyme prediction is proposed in our work. Method: We propose a computational method for the prediction of endolysin and autolysin. First, a data set containing 27 endolysins and 41 autolysins is built. Then the protein is represented by tripeptides composition. The features are selected with larger confidence degree. At last, the classifier is trained by the labeled vectors based on support vector machine. The learned classifier is used to predict the type of cell lytic enzyme. Results: Following the proposed method, the experimental results show that the overall accuracy can attain 97.06%, when 44 features are selected. Compared with Ding's method, our method improves the overall accuracy by nearly 4.5% ((97.06-92.9)/92.9%). The performance of our proposed method is stable, when the selected feature number is from 40 to 70. The overall accuracy of tripeptides optimal feature set is 94.12%, and the overall accuracy of Chou's amphiphilic PseAAC method is 76.2%. The experimental results also demonstrate that the overall accuracy is improved by nearly 18% when using the tripeptides optimal feature set. Conclusion: The paper proposed an efficient method for identifying endolysin and autolysin. In this paper, support vector machine is used to predict the type of cell lytic enzyme. The experimental results show that the overall accuracy of the proposed method is 94.12%, which is better than some existing methods. In conclusion, the selected 44 features can improve the overall accuracy for identification of the type of cell lytic enzyme. Support vector machine performs better than other classifiers when using the selected feature set on the benchmark data set.

Text present in a camera captured scene images is semantically rich and can be used for image understanding. Automatic detection, extraction, and recognition of text are crucial in image understanding applications. Text detection from natural scene images is a tedious task due to complex background, uneven light conditions, multi-coloured and multi-sized font. Two techniques, namely ‘edge detection' and ‘colour-based clustering', are combined in this paper to detect text in scene images. Region properties are used for elimination of falsely generated annotations. A dataset of 1250 images is created and used for experimentation. Experimental results show that the combined approach performs better than the individual approaches.
