2D Face Recognition System Based on Selected Gabor Filters and Linear Discriminant Analysis LDA
We present a new approach for face recognition system. The method is based on
2D face image features using subset of non-correlated and Orthogonal Gabor
Filters instead of using the whole Gabor Filter Bank, then compressing the
output feature vector using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). The face image
has been enhanced using multi stage image processing technique to normalize it
and compensate for illumination variation. Experimental results show that the
proposed system is effective for both dimension reduction and good recognition
performance when compared to the complete Gabor filter bank. The system has
been tested using CASIA, ORL and Cropped YaleB 2D face images Databases and
achieved average recognition rate of 98.9 %
Learning Adaptive Discriminative Correlation Filters via Temporal Consistency Preserving Spatial Feature Selection for Robust Visual Tracking
With efficient appearance learning models, Discriminative Correlation Filter
(DCF) has been proven to be very successful in recent video object tracking
benchmarks and competitions. However, the existing DCF paradigm suffers from
two major issues, i.e., spatial boundary effect and temporal filter
degradation. To mitigate these challenges, we propose a new DCF-based tracking
method. The key innovations of the proposed method include adaptive spatial
feature selection and temporal consistent constraints, with which the new
tracker enables joint spatial-temporal filter learning in a lower dimensional
discriminative manifold. More specifically, we apply structured spatial
sparsity constraints to multi-channel filers. Consequently, the process of
learning spatial filters can be approximated by the lasso regularisation. To
encourage temporal consistency, the filter model is restricted to lie around
its historical value and updated locally to preserve the global structure in
the manifold. Last, a unified optimisation framework is proposed to jointly
select temporal consistency preserving spatial features and learn
discriminative filters with the augmented Lagrangian method. Qualitative and
quantitative evaluations have been conducted on a number of well-known
benchmarking datasets such as OTB2013, OTB50, OTB100, Temple-Colour, UAV123 and
VOT2018. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed
method over the state-of-the-art approaches
