    Face recognition is a widely used biometric approach. Face recognition technology has developed rapidly in recent years and it is more direct, user friendly and convenient compared to other methods. But face recognition systems are vulnerable to spoof attacks made by non-real faces. It is an easy way to spoof face recognition systems by facial pictures such as portrait photographs. A secure system needs Liveness detection in order to guard against such spoofing. In this work, face liveness detection approaches are categorized based on the various types techniques used for liveness detection. This categorization helps understanding different spoof attacks scenarios and their relation to the developed solutions. A review of the latest works regarding face liveness detection works is presented. The main aim is to provide a simple path for the future development of novel and more secured face liveness detection approach

    The attendance is taken in every organization. Traditional approach for attendance is, professor calls student name & record attendance. For each lecture this is wastage of time. To avoid these losses, we are about to use automatic process which is based on image processing. In this project approach, we are using face detection & face recognition system. The first phase is pre-processing where the face detection is processed through the step image processing. It includes the face detection and face recognition process. Second phase is feature extraction. Step by step execution of these techniques (Image Processing) helps to achieve the final output. The working of this project is to detect and recognize the face and mark the attendance for the corresponding face in the database. Input of this project is face detection and recognition and output is to mark the attendance. Our project is being presented as a solution for the Automatic Attendance Marking System. It is designed to be reliable and low power. The Automatic face detection and recognition proposed to attendance marking in database acts as the solution for the automatic attendance marking system.

    Robust Facial Alignment for Face Recognition

    Ā© 2017, Springer International Publishing AG. This paper proposes a robust real-time face recognition system that utilizes regression tree based method to locate the facial feature points. The proposed system finds the face region which is suitable to perform the recognition task by geometrically analyses of the facial expression of the target face image. In real-world facial recognition systems, the face is often cropped based on the face detection techniques. The misalignment is inevitably occurred due to facial pose, noise, occlusion, and so on. However misalignment affects the recognition rate due to sensitive nature of the face classifier. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated with four benchmark databases. The experiment results show the robustness of the proposed approach with significant improvement in the facial recognition system on the various size and resolution of given face images

    A bank of unscented Kalman filters for multimodal human perception with mobile service robots

    A new generation of mobile service robots could be ready soon to operate in human environments if they can robustly estimate position and identity of surrounding people. Researchers in this field face a number of challenging problems, among which sensor uncertainties and real-time constraints. In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient solution for simultaneous tracking and recognition of people within the observation range of a mobile robot. Multisensor techniques for legs and face detection are fused in a robust probabilistic framework to height, clothes and face recognition algorithms. The system is based on an efficient bank of Unscented Kalman Filters that keeps a multi-hypothesis estimate of the person being tracked, including the case where the latter is unknown to the robot. Several experiments with real mobile robots are presented to validate the proposed approach. They show that our solutions can improve the robot's perception and recognition of humans, providing a useful contribution for the future application of service robotics

    Face Recognition based Feature Extraction using Principal Component Analysis (PCA)

    Get PDF
    The human face is an entity that has semantic features. Face detection is the first step before face recognition. Face recognition technique is an identification process based on facial features. One feature extraction approach for facial recognition techniques is the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. The PCA method is used to simplify facial features and characteristics in order to obtain proportions that are able to represent the characteristics of the original face. The purpose of this research is to construct facial patterns stored in a digital image database. The process of pattern construction and face recognition starts from objects in the form of face images, side detection, pattern construction until it can determine the similarity of face patterns to proceed as face recognition. In this research, a program has been designed to test some samples of face data stored in a digital image database so that it can provide a similarity in the face patterns being observed and its introduction using PC

    The evolution of computer vision technologies has led to the emergence of novel applications across various sectors, with face detection and recognition systems taking center stage. In this research paper, we present a comprehensive examination and implementation of a face detection project that harnesses the cutting-edge face recognition model. Our primary aim is to create a reliable and effective system that can be seamlessly integrated into functions allowing users to input their image to capture their facial features, subsequently retrieving all images linked to their identity from a database. Our strategy capitalizes on the dlib library and its face recognition model, which com- bines advanced deep learning methods with traditional computer vision techniques to attain highly accurate face detection and recognition. The essential elements of our system encompass face detection, face recognition, and image retrieval. Initially, we employ the face recognition model to detect and pinpoint faces within the captured image. Following that, we employ facial landmarks and feature embeddings to recognize and match the detected face with entries in a database. Finally, we retrieve and present all images connected to the recognized individual. To validate the effectiveness of our system, we conducted extensive experiments on a diverse dataset that encompasses various lighting conditions, poses, and facial expressions. Our findings demonstrate exceptional accuracy and efficiency in both face detection and recognition, rendering our approach suitable for real-world applications. We envision a broad spectrum of potential applications for our system, including access control, event management, and personal media organization

    Face recognition using color local binary pattern from mutually independent color channels

    Get PDF
    In this paper, a high performance face recognition system based on local binary pattern (LBP) using the probability distribution functions (PDF) of pixels in different mutually independent color channels which are robust to frontal homogenous illumination and planer rotation is proposed. The illumination of faces is enhanced by using the state-of-the-art technique which is using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and singular value decomposition (SVD). After equalization, face images are segmented by use of local Successive Mean Quantization Transform (SMQT) followed by skin color based face detection system. Kullback-Leibler Distance (KLD) between the concatenated PDFs of a given face obtained by LBP and the concatenated PDFs of each face in the database is used as a metric in the recognition process. Various decision fusion techniques have been used in order to improve the recognition rate. The proposed system has been tested on the FERET, HP, and Bosphorus face databases. The proposed system is compared with conventional and thestate-of-the-art techniques. The recognition rates obtained using FVF approach for FERET database is 99.78% compared with 79.60% and 68.80% for conventional gray scale LBP and Principle Component Analysis (PCA) based face recognition techniques respectively.Comment: 11 pages in EURASIP Journal on Image and Video Processing, 201
