Face recognition is a research hotspot of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. This paper presents a method of extract face feature based on Wavelet. First, reduce vector dimension by wavelet decomposition of the image, second, train the multi class support vector machine (SVM) model by face feature vector extracted and make face recognition finally. The experiments on ORL face image database of the algorithm shows the superiority of the proposed algorithm in terms of recognition performance.

In the process of face recognition, face acquisition data is seriously distorted. Many face images collected are blurred or even missing. Faced with so many problems, the traditional image inpainting was based on structure, while the current popular image inpainting method is based on deep convolutional neural network and generative adversarial nets. In this paper, we propose a 3D face image inpainting method based on generative adversarial nets. We identify two parallels of the vector to locate the planer positions. Compared with the previous, the edge information of the missing image is detected, and the edge fuzzy inpainting can achieve better visual match effect. We make the face recognition performance dramatically boost.

To address the problem that the dimension of the feature vector extracted by Local Binary Pattern (LBP) for face recognition is too high and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) extract features are not the best classification features, an efficient feature extraction method using LBP, PCA and Maximum scatter difference (MSD) has been introduced in this paper. The original face image is firstly divided into sub-images, then the LBP operator is applied to extract the histogram feature. and the feature dimensions are further reduced by using PCA. Finally,MSD is performed on the reduced PCA-based feature.The experimental results on ORL and Yale database demonstrate that the proposed method can classify more effectively and can get higher recognition rate than the traditional recognition methods.

In this paper, we present a face recognition approach based on extended Histogram Oriented Gradient (HOG) descriptors to extract the facial expressions features allowing classifying the faces and facial expressions. The approach is based on determining the different directional codes on the face image based on edge response values to define the feature vector from the face image. Its size is reduced to improve the performance of the SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifier. Experiments are conducted using two public datasets: JAFFE for facial expression recognition and YALE for face recognition. Experimental results show that the proposed descriptor achieves recognition rate of 92.12% and execution time ranging from 0.4s to 0.7s in all evaluated databases compared with existing works. Experiments demonstrate and confirm both the effectiveness and the efficiency of the proposed descriptor.

Adaboost Viola-Jones method is indeed a profound discovery in detecting face images mainly because it is fast, light and one of the easiest methods of detecting face images among other techniques of face detection. Viola Jones uses Haar wavelet filter to detect face images and it produces almost 80%accuracy of face detection. This paper discusses proposed methodology and algorithms that involved larger library of filters used to create more discrimination features among the images by processing the proposed 15 Haar rectangular features (an extension from 4 Haar wavelet filters of Viola Jones) and used them in multiple adaptive ensemble process of detecting face image. After facial detection, the process continues with normalization processes by applying feature extraction such as PCA combined with LDA or LPP to extract our week learners’ wavelet for more classification features. Upon the process of feature extraction proposed feature selection to index these extracted data. These extracted vectors are used for training and creating MADBoost (Multiple Adaptive Diversified Boost)(an improvement of Adaboost, which uses multiple feature extraction methods combined with multiple classifiers) is able to capture, recognize and distinguish face image (s) faster. MADBoost applies the ensemble approach with better weights for classification to produce better face recognition results. Three experiments have been conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed MADBoost with three other classifiers, Neural Network (NN), Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Adaboost classifiers using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as the feature extraction method. These experiments were tested against obstacles of POIES (Pose, Obstruction, Illumination, Expression, Sizes). Based on the results obtained, Madboost is found to be able to improve the recognition performance in matching failures, incorrect matching, matching success percentages and acceptable time taken to perform the classification task.

Despite the variety of approaches and tools studied, face recognition is not accurate or robust enough to be used in uncontrolled environments. Recently, infrared (IR) imagery of human faces is considered as a promising alternative to visible imagery. IR face recognition is a biometric which offers the security of fingerprints with the convenience of face recognition. However, IR has its own limitations. The presence of eyeglasses has more influence on IR than visible imagery. In this paper, a method based on Log-Gabor wavelets for IR face recognition is proposed. The method first derives a Log-Gabor feature vector from IR face image, then obtains the independent Log-Gabor features by using independent component analysis (ICA). Experimental results show that the proposed method works well, even in challenging situations.

AbstractWhite blood cells (WBC), which form the basis of the immune system, protect the body from foreign invaders and infectious diseases. While the number and structural features of WBCs can provide important information about the health of people, the ratio of the subtypes of these cells and observable deformations are a good indicator in the diagnostic process. The recognition of cells of the type of lymphocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils and monocytes is critical. In this article, Deep Learning based Hybrid CNN (Convololutional Neural Network) model is proposed for classification of eosinophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils WBCs. The model presented is based on pretrained Alexnet and Googlenet architectures. The feature vector in the last pooling layer of both CNN architectures has been merged, and the resulting feature vector is classified by the Support Vector Machine. To determine the superiority of the proposed method, the classification was also performed and compared using pretrained Alexnet and Googlenet. Hybrid Alexnet-Googlenet-SVM model provides higher accuracy than pretrained Alexnet and Googlenet. The proposed method has been tested with WBC images from Kaggle and LISC database. Accuracy and F1-score were 99.73%, 0.99 and 98.23%, 0.98 for both data sets, respectively.
