In this paper, we present a novel face detection approach based on a convolutional neural
architecture, designed to robustly detect highly variable face patterns, rotated up to/spl …

Nonlinear support vector machines (SVMs) are investigated for appearance-based gender
classification with low-resolution" thumbnail" faces processed from 1,755 images from the …

A novel object descriptor, histogram of Gabor phase pattern (HGPP), is proposed for robust
face recognition. In HGPP, the quadrant-bit codes are first extracted from faces based on the …

We propose a new technique for direct visual matching of images for the purposes of face
recognition and image retrieval, using a probabilistic measure of similarity, based primarily …

In two editions spanning more than a decade, The Electrical Engineering Handbook stands
as the definitive reference to the multidisciplinary field of electrical engineering. Our …

A face recognition algorithm based on modular PCA approach is presented in this paper.
The proposed algorithm when compared with conventional PCA algorithm has an improved …

In this paper, we address the problem of classifying image sets, each of which contains
images belonging to the same class but covering large variations in, for instance, viewpoint …

This paper presents a novel Gabor-based kernel principal component analysis (PCA)
method by integrating the Gabor wavelet representation of face images and the kernel PCA …

We present an approach that incorporates appearance-adaptive models in a particle filter to
realize robust visual tracking and recognition algorithms. Tracking needs modeling …
