In face recognition system, the purpose of gray pretreatment is to denoise and enhance the image. The traditional linear or nonlinear denoising algorithm can bring edge loss, which make it difficulty for the subsequent image segmentation or matching. Although Alpha filter can bring the minimum loss of image edge, the size of filtering window cannot be adaptively changed according to the noise. The Alpha filter is improved on the basis that the information entropy can reflect the noise strength to some degrees. The single pixel entropy in neighborhood is compared with the information entropy average and then the noise infection of neighborhood pixel is determined. Moreover, according to the noise infection, the window size is adaptively adjusted to filter. The results show that the loss of image edge obviously reduces. Because the image size is fixed, we can calculate the integration of normalized image according to cumulative distribution function of the image. Therefore, the image histogram equalization is derived and the image gray is transformed to get the enhanced image. Finally, the results show that the face image after improved gray pretreatment can well ensure the image edge integrity and the face recognition effect is improved by edge feature.

In the recent time bioinformatics take wide field in image processing. Face recognition which is basically the task of recognizing a person based on its facial image. It has become very popular in the last two decades, mainly because of the new methods developed and the high quality of the current visual instruments. There are different types of face recognition algorithms, and each method has a different approach to extract the image features and perform the matching with the input image. In this paper the Local Binary Patterns (LBP) was used, which is a particular case of the Texture Spectrum model, and powerful feature for texture classification. The face recognition system consists of recognizing the faces acquisition from a given data base via two phases. The most useful and unique features of the face image are extracted in the feature extraction phase. In the classification the face image is compared with the images from the database. The proposed algorithm for face recognition in this paper adopt the LBP features encode local texture information with default values. Apply histogram equalization and Resize the image into 80x60, divide it to five blocks, then Save every LBP feature as a vector table. Matlab R2019a was used to build the face recognition system. The Results which obtained are accurate and they are 98.8% overall (500 face image).

Fuzzy C Means Clustering

Now a days one of the critical factors that affects the recognition performance of any face recognition system is partial occlusion. The paper addresses face recognition in the presence of sunglasses and scarf occlusion. The face recognition approach that we proposed, detects the face region that is not occluded and then uses this region to obtain the face recognition. To segment the occluded and non-occluded parts, adaptive Fuzzy C-Means Clustering is used and for recognition Minimum Cost Sub-Block Matching Distance(MCSBMD) are used. The input face image is divided in to number of sub blocks and each block is checked if occlusion present or not and only from non-occluded blocks MWLBP features are extracted and are used for classification. Experiment results shows our method is giving promising results when compared to the other conventional techniques.

The Face recognition and image or video recognition are popular research topics in biometric technology. Real-time face recognition is an exciting field and a rapidly evolving issue. Key component analysis (PCA) may be a statistical technique collectively called correlational analysis . The goal of PCA is to scale back the massive amount of knowledge storage to the dimensions of the functional space required to render the face recognition system. The wide one-dimensional pixel vector generated from the two-dimensional image of the face and therefore the basic elements of the spatial function are designed for face recognition using PCA. this is often the projection of your own space. Sufficient space is decided by the brand. specialise in the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix of the fingerprint image collection. i'm building a camera-based real-time face recognition system and installing an algorithm.

Face recognition using thermal imaging has the main advantage of being less affected by lighting conditions compared to images in the visible spectrum. However, there are factors such as the process of human thermoregulation that cause variations in the surface temperature of the face. These variations cause recognition systems to lose effectiveness. In particular, alcohol intake causes changes in the surface temperature of the face. It is of high relevance to identify not only if a person is drunk but also their identity. In this paper, we present a technique for face recognition based on thermal face images of drunk people. For the experiments, the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso-Drunk Thermal Face database (PUCV-DTF) was used. The recognition system was carried out by using local binary patterns (LBPs). The LBP features were obtained from the bioheat model from thermal image representation and a fusion of thermal images and a vascular network extracted from the same image. The feature vector for each image is formed by the concatenation of the LBP histogram of the thermogram with an anisotropic filter and the fused image, respectively. The proposed technique has an average percentage of 99.63% in the Rank-10 cumulative classification; this performance is superior compared to using LBP in thermal images that do not use the bioheat model.

In this paper, the effect of mixture tying on a second-order 2D Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is studied as applied to the face recognition problem. While tying HMM parameters is a well-known solution in the case of insufficient training data that leads to nonrobust estimation, it is used here to improve the overall performance in the small model case where the resolution in the observation space is the main problem. The fully-tied-mixture 2D HMM-based face recognition system is applied to the facial database of AT&T and the facial database of Georgia Institute of Technology. The performance of the proposed 2D HMM tied-mixture system is studied and the expected improvement is confirmed.

Attendance marking in a classroom is one of the methods used to track the student’s presence in the lecture. The conventional method that is being enforced has shown to be vulnerable, inaccurate and time-consuming especially in a large classroom. It is difficult to identify absentees and proxy attendees based on the conventional attendance marking method. In order to overcome the challenges faced in the conventional method, a web-based mobile attendance system with facial recognition feature is proposed. It incorporated the existing mobile devices with a camera and the face recognition system to allow the attendance system to be used in classrooms automatically and efficiently with minor implementation requirements. The system prototype received positive responses from the volunteers who tested the system to replace the conventional attendance marking.

Abstract: In order to solve the easily copied problem of images in face recognition software, an algorithm combining the image feature with digital watermark is presented in this paper. As watermark information, image feature of the adjacent blocks are embedded to the face image. And primitive face images are not needed when recovering the watermark. So face image integrity can be well confirmed, and the algorithm can detect whether the face image is the original one and identify whether the face image is attacked by malicious aim-such as tampering, replacing or illegally adding. Experimental results show that the algorithm with good invisibility and excellent robustness has no interference on face recognition rate, and it can position the specific tampered location of human face image.

The Face

In order to study face recognition in relative isolation from visual processes that may also contribute to object recognition and reading, we investigated CK, a man with normal face recognition but with object agnosia and dyslexia caused by a closed-head injury. We administered recognition tests of up right faces, of family resemblance, of age-transformed faces, of caricatures, of cartoons, of inverted faces, and of face features, of disguised faces, of perceptually degraded faces, of fractured faces, of faces parts, and of faces whose parts were made of objects. We compared CK's performance with that of at least 12 control participants. We found that CK performed as well as controls as long as the face was upright and retained the configurational integrity among the internal facial features, the eyes, nose, and mouth. This held regardless of whether the face was disguised or degraded and whether the face was represented as a photo, a caricature, a cartoon, or a face composed of objects. In the last case, CK perceived the face but, unlike controls, was rarely aware that it was composed of objects. When the face, or just the internal features, were inverted or when the configurational gestalt was broken by fracturing the face or misaligning the top and bottom halves, CK's performance suffered far more than that of controls. We conclude that face recognition normally depends on two systems: (1) a holistic, face-specific system that is dependent on orientationspecific coding of second-order relational features (internal), which is intact in CK and (2) a part-based object-recognition system, which is damaged in CK and which contributes to face recognition when the face stimulus does not satisfy the domain-specific conditions needed to activate the face system.
