Face recognition under drastic pose drops rapidly due to the limited samples during the model training. In this paper, we propose a pose-autoaugment face recognition framework (PAFR) based on the training of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with multi-view face augmentation. The proposed framework consists of three parts: face augmentation, CNN training, and face matching. The face augmentation part is composed of pose autoaugment and background appending for increasing the pose variations of each subject. In the second part, we train a CNN model with the generated facial images to enhance the pose-invariant feature extraction. In the third part, we concatenate the feature vectors of each face and its horizontally flipped face from the trained CNN model to obtain a robust feature. The correlation score between the two faces is computed by the cosine similarity of their robust features. Comparable experiments are demonstrated on Bosphorus and CASIA-3D databases.

In order to improve the low accuracy of the face recognition methods in the case of e-health, this paper proposed a novel face recognition approach, which is based on convolutional neural network (CNN). In detail, through resolving the convolutional kernel, rectified linear unit (ReLU) activation function, dropout, and batch normalization, this novel approach reduces the number of parameters of the CNN model, improves the non-linearity of the CNN model, and alleviates overfitting of the CNN model. In these ways, the accuracy of face recognition is increased. In the experiments, the proposed approach is compared with principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM) on ORL, Cohn-Kanade, and extended Yale-B face recognition data set, and it proves that this approach is promising.

In scientific world, Face recognition becomes an important research topic. The face identification system is an application capable of verifying a human face from a live videos or digital images. One of the best methods is to compare the particular facial attributes of a person with the images and its database. It is widely used in biometrics and security systems. Back in old days, face identification was a challenging concept. Because of the variations in viewpoint and facial expression, the deep learning neural network came into the technology stack it’s been very easy to detect and recognize the faces. The efficiency has increased dramatically. In this paper, ORL database is about the ten images of forty people helps to evaluate our methodology. We use the concept of Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) in deep learning model is to recognize the faces and increase the efficiency of the model compared to previously existing face recognition models.

Surveillance systems are used for the monitoring the activities directly or indirectly. Most of the surveillance system uses the face recognition techniques to monitor the activities. This system builds the automated contemporary biometric surveillance system based on deep learning. The application of the system can be used in various ways. The face prints of the persons will be stored inside the database with relevant statistics and does the face recognition. When any unknown face is recognized then alarm will ring so one can alert the security systems and in addition actions will be taken. The system learns changes while detecting faces automatically using deep learning and gain correct accuracy in face recognition. A deep learning method including Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is having great significance in the area of image processing. This system can be applicable to monitor the activities for the housing society premises.

Abstract Numerous algorithms have met complexity in recognizing the face, which is invariant to plastic surgery, owing to the texture variations in the skin. Though plastic surgery serves to be a challenging issue in the domain of face recognition, the concerned theme has to be restudied for its hypothetical and experimental perspectives. In this paper, Adaptive Gradient Location and Orientation Histogram (AGLOH)-based feature extraction is proposed to accomplish effective plastic surgery face recognition. The proposed features are extracted from the granular space of the faces. Additionally, the variants of the local binary pattern are also extracted to accompany the AGLOH features. Subsequently, the feature dimensionality is reduced using principal component analysis (PCA) to train the artificial neural network. The paper trains the neural network using particle swarm optimization, despite utilizing the traditional learning algorithms. The experimentation involved 452 plastic surgery faces from blepharoplasty, brow lift, liposhaving, malar augmentation, mentoplasty, otoplasty, rhinoplasty, rhytidectomy and skin peeling. Finally, the proposed AGLOH proves its performance dominance.

The article deals with the technical side of face recognition — the neural network. The advantages of the neural network for identification of the person are substantiated, the stages of comparison of two images are considered. The first step is defined as the face search in the photo. Using several tests, the best neural network was identified, which allowed to effectively obtain a normalized image of a person’s face. The second step is to find the features of the person, for which the comparative analysis is performed. It was this stage that became the main point in this article — 16 sets of tests were carried out, each test set has 12 tests inside. Two large datasets were used for the study to evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithms not only in ideal circumstances but also in the field. The results of the study allowed us to determine the best method and neural model for finding a face and dividing it into parts. It is determined which part of the face the algorithm recognizes best — it will allow making adjustments to the location of the camera.

In this work, we consider the applicability of the face recognition algorithms to the data obtained from a dynamic vision sensor. A basic method using a neural network model comprised of reconstruction, detection, and recognition is proposed that solves this problem. Various modifications of this algorithm and their influence on the quality of the model are considered. A small test dataset recorded on a DVS sensor is collected. The relevance of using simulated data and different approaches for its creation for training a model was investigated. The portability of the algorithm trained on synthetic data to the data obtained from the sensor with the help of fine-tuning was considered. All mentioned variations are compared to one another and also compared with conventional face recognition from RGB images on different datasets. The results showed that it is possible to use DVS data to perform face recognition with quality similar to that of RGB data.

At present, frontal or even near frontal face recognition problem is no longer considered as a challenge. Recently, the shift has been to improve the recognition rate for the nonfrontal face. In this work, a neural network paradigm based on the radial basis function approach is proposed to tackle the challenge of recognizing faces in different poses. Exploiting the symmetrical properties of human face, our work takes the advantage of the existence of even half of the face. The strategy is to maximize the linearity relationship based on the local information of the face rather than on the global information. To establish the relationship, our proposed method employs discrete wavelet transform and multi-color uniform local binary pattern (ULBP) in order to obtain features for the local information. The local information will then be represented by a single vector known as the face feature vector. This face feature vector will be used to estimate the frontal face feature vector which will be used for matching with the actual vector. With such an approach, our proposed method relies on a database that contains only single frontal face images. The results shown in this paper demonstrate the robustness of our proposed method even at low-resolution conditions.

AbstractIn response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments around the world now recommend, or require, that their citizens cover the lower half of their face in public. Consequently, many people now wear surgical face masks in public. We investigated whether surgical face masks affected the performance of human observers, and a state-of-the-art face recognition system, on tasks of perceptual face matching. Participants judged whether two simultaneously presented face photographs showed the same person or two different people. We superimposed images of surgical masks over the faces, creating three different mask conditions: control (no masks), mixed (one face wearing a mask), and masked (both faces wearing masks). We found that surgical face masks have a large detrimental effect on human face matching performance, and that the degree of impairment is the same regardless of whether one or both faces in each pair are masked. Surprisingly, this impairment is similar in size for both familiar and unfamiliar faces. When matching masked faces, human observers are biased to reject unfamiliar faces as “mismatches” and to accept familiar faces as “matches”. Finally, the face recognition system showed very high classification accuracy for control and masked stimuli, even though it had not been trained to recognise masked faces. However, accuracy fell markedly when one face was masked and the other was not. Our findings demonstrate that surgical face masks impair the ability of humans, and naïve face recognition systems, to perform perceptual face matching tasks. Identification decisions for masked faces should be treated with caution.

In order to avoid the risk of the biological database being attacked and tampered by hackers, an Autoassociative Memory (AAM) model is proposed in this paper. The model is based on the recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for face recognition, under the condition that the face database is replaced by its model parameters. The stability of the model is proved and analyzed to slack the constraints of AAM model parameters. Besides, a design procedure about solving AAM model parameters is given, and the face recognition method by AAM model is established, which includes image preprocessing, AAM model training, and image recognition. Finally, simulation results on two experiments show the feasibility and performance of the proposed face recognition method.

As an active research topic, many algorithms have been presented for face recognition. However, they mainly utilize the monochromatic intensity information. Among a few color face recognition methods, most of them treat the three channels separately. In this paper, a color face image is treated in a holistic manner by using the quaternion theory. We then propose a new algorithm for color face recognition, which uses the quaternion Zernike moment invariants and the quaternion BP neural network for the color face recognition. Experimental results on the Collection of Facial Images (Grimace) database, including major expression variation and considerable variation in head turn and tilt, show that the proposed method is better than the conventional ones in recognition rate.
