Face Recognition Approaches and Algorithms Comparison

2013-05-08T09:44:55Z

We are doing an comparison among existing face recognition algorithms
and approaches with related to 1 to N searching face recognition on very
large data sets. Our aim is to improve the performance of
face recognition algorithms to improve the performance to be used in very
large data-sets of images and give accurate results.

Why there is no reply from NIST for the request of FRGC database?

2013-05-06T11:14:15Z

Hi, All. Have you ever encountered any problem when trying to get access to
the FRGC database? Both my supervisor (a full-time faculty member) and I
have sent emails to NIST for many times.
We also include the following information that NIST requires, but still no
one replies.
If anyone knows the reason, could you please kindly let me know?

face - non face dataset

2013-05-03T16:13:32Z

Hi all
I got a neural network, it should be able to recognize face/non face
images. The problem is that I just tested it with a few images just
downloaded on the net.
Actually I need a dataset containing face and non face images. I'm sure you
would recommend me MIT CBCL Face Database #1 but images should be at least

Normalization Technique

2013-03-29T14:46:08Z

Hi friends,
I am currently working on Feature Level Fusion of Face and Fingerprint
Modalities.
I have used Gabor wavelet (at 8 orientations and 5 scales) to extract
features. Later I have used PCA and LDA to facilitate better inter-class
separation and dimension reduction.
Which technique should be used to normalize feature vectors (as they are

Hello,
I am working on a project for face recognition and detection of baby faces.
While there are lots of datasets of grown-up's faces, I couldn't find a
suitable training set of baby faces. Does anyone know where can I find
something like this?
Thanks!

Dear all,
I am interested in the study of emotions.
I am already working with the CK+ database and I would like to try my algorithms on a different one.
Which are the most common database for emotions?
I know only the Japanese Female Facial Expression (JAFFE). Do you think it is suitable? Isn't it too old-little?

What are some semi-supervised algorithms to try for classifying facial images?

of the data is labeled. I'm looking for advise on what machine learning
algorithms to try? (I presume semi-supervised should do the best).

I want to use model like ASM(active shape model) for face recognition.

For example I mark by the hands points on 1st image and 2nd and then I want
to compare them.

What metric I should choose?

here, if you permit.

The main advantage of face recognition algorithms like PCA lies in the
domain of dimension reduction. For eg., if we have a collection of
images of say 20000 persons, then we dont want to store it and make
