Book A New Similarity Measurement For Face Recognition

Download or read book A New Similarity Measurement For Face Recognition written by Kadhim M Hashim and published by . This book was released on 2020-06 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces proposed new standards between digital images, which recorded the best results for the similarity between two images, although the images were exposed to a large amount of noise, and a peak signal to noise scale )PSNR)was used. The reference to noise as a measure of the noise ratio in the image processing and computer vision measuring image similarity among the two images becomes a fundamental case in many problems. In recent years, many images of similarity measures were proposed, most of them work with very particular kind of image distortions. Some of them are viable to a wider range of applications such as the structural similarity measure (SSIM) index. This chapter presents an introduction to image similarity, similarity methods and explains the most related works in detail; also it presents a literature survey for image similarity measures.

Download or read book Similarity Measures for Face Recognition written by Enrico Vezzetti and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015-04-27 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Face recognition has several applications, including security, such as (authentication and identification of device users and criminal suspects), and in medicine (corrective surgery and diagnosis). Facial recognition programs rely on algorithms that can compare and compute the similarity between two sets of images. This eBook explains some of the similarity measures used in facial recognition systems in a single volume. Readers will learn about various measures including Minkowski distances, Mahalanobis distances, Hansdorff distances, cosine-based distances, among other methods. The book also summarizes errors that may occur in face recognition methods. Computer scientists "facing face" and looking to select and test different methods of computing similarities will benefit from this book. The book is also useful tool for students undertaking computer vision courses.

Book Image Fusion

Download or read book Image Fusion written by H.B. Mitchell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide a practical introduction to the th- ries, techniques and applications of image fusion. The present work has been designed as a textbook for a one-semester ?nal-year undergraduate, or ?r- year graduate, course in image fusion. It should also be useful to practising engineers who wish to learn the concepts of image fusion and apply them to practical applications. In addition, the book may also be used as a supp- mentary text for a graduate course on topics in advanced image processing. The book complements the author’s previous work on multi-sensor data [1] fusion by concentrating exclusively on the theories, techniques and app- cations of image fusion. The book is intended to be self-contained in so far as the subject of image fusion is concerned, although some prior exposure to the ?eld of computer vision and image processing may be helpful to the reader. Apart from two preliminary chapters, the book is divided into three parts.

Book Cross Disciplinary Biometric Systems

Download or read book Cross Disciplinary Biometric Systems written by Chengjun Liu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross disciplinary biometric systems help boost the performance of the conventional systems. Not only is the recognition accuracy significantly improved, but also the robustness of the systems is greatly enhanced in the challenging environments, such as varying illumination conditions. By leveraging the cross disciplinary technologies, face recognition systems, fingerprint recognition systems, iris recognition systems, as well as image search systems all benefit in terms of recognition performance. Take face recognition for an example, which is not only the most natural way human beings recognize the identity of each other, but also the least privacy-intrusive means because people show their face publicly every day. Face recognition systems display superb performance when they capitalize on the innovative ideas across color science, mathematics, and computer science (e.g., pattern recognition, machine learning, and image processing). The novel ideas lead to the development of new color models and effective color features in color science; innovative features from wavelets and statistics, and new kernel methods and novel kernel models in mathematics; new discriminant analysis frameworks, novel similarity measures, and new image analysis methods, such as fusing multiple image features from frequency domain, spatial domain, and color domain in computer science; as well as system design, new strategies for system integration, and different fusion strategies, such as the feature level fusion, decision level fusion, and new fusion strategies with novel similarity measures.

Book Human Recognition of Faces Across Changing Contexts is Independent of Image Similarity

Download or read book Human Recognition of Faces Across Changing Contexts is Independent of Image Similarity written by Danelle Alexis Wilbraham and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Faces are important stimuli because they are critical for functioning in our social world. Namely, the face is the only reliably exposed body part that can be used to distinguish one person from another, and facial expressions convey emotions that facilitate social interaction. When studying faces as a vision scientist, one way to conceptualize face recognition is to think of faces as a specific class of object. Unlike other objects, faces are recognized on a subordinate level, where the primary task is to distinguish face A from face B. With other objects, the primary task is to distinguish among different classes of objects (e.g. cups vs. chairs). However, faces and other objects share the property of being three dimensional, and thus subject to an infinite number of viewing directions in addition to the multitudes of illumination conditions that might be presented. Two general classes of recognition models have emerged in the object recognition literature and are also applicable to face recognition. Models in the first class are typically based on features of some sort and rely on object-centered representations. The observer is conceptualized as a "feature extractor," extracting namable features from the image that are used to construct a single, generalizable representation of the object. The second class includes models that are based on properties of the image and rely on viewer-centered representations. These models characterize the observer as a "pixel pattern comparator," and posit many stored representations for each object. Many of the feature-based models in the object recognition literature rely on properties such as parallelism and co-termination, which are not useful in describing faces. Therefore, for the most part, models in the face recognition literature take a more image-based approach. One major difficulty with the research area is that studies claiming to provide psychophysical support for an image-based conception of human face recognition fail to measure the image differences. Because of this lack of control, it is impossible to ensure that the changes in the images themselves are independent of the judgments being made by the observers. The present study aimed to correct this problem by measuring the image differences and using these differences to construct conditions that, under an image-based regime, would facilitate or impair the ability to perform and identity judgment. Observers saw a face followed by two alternative faces and their task was simply to indicate which of the two alternatives shared the same identity as the first face. These alternatives could have a changed expression or a change in illumination conditions. In one condition, the match and the incorrect alternative (the foil) shared the same degree of image similarity with the sample. In the facilitating condition, the correct match was more similar to the sample face than was the foil. The impairment condition had matches that were less similar to the sample than the foil. If only the pixel intensity information is being used, one would predict good performance in the facilitation condition, and increasingly poor performance in the equal similarity and impairment conditions. Results showed that the manipulation of the image similarity had no appreciable effect on human performance. An image-based algorithm was trained to perform the same task and though it performed better than was predicted, the results did not correlate well with human performance. In light of these results, I conclude that popular approaches to face recognition are not sufficient descriptors of human face recognition, and suggest further research to confirm this conclusion. Alternative models and supporting data are also discussed.
