Integrate the original face image and its mirror image for face recognition

Y Xu, X Li, J Yang, D Zhang - Neurocomputing, 2014 - Elsevier
The face almost always has an axis-symmetrical structure. However, as the face usually
does not have an absolutely frontal pose when it is imaged, the majority of face images are …

Traffic sign recognition using group sparse coding

H Liu, Y Liu, F Sun - Information Sciences, 2014 - Elsevier
Recognizing traffic signs is a challenging problem; and it has captured the attention of the
computer vision community for several decades. Essentially, traffic sign recognition is a multi …

Facial-feature detection and localization based on a hierarchical scheme

M Jian, KM Lam, J Dong - Information Sciences, 2014 - Elsevier
An efficient hierarchical scheme, which is robust to illumination and pose variations in face

Bayesian signal detection with compressed measurements

J Cao, Z Lin - Information Sciences, 2014 - Elsevier
This paper proposes the Bayesian approach to signal detection in compressed sensing (CS)
using compressed measurements directly. A general expression of the probability of error is …

Producing virtual face images for single sample face recognition

T Zhang, X Li, RZ Guo - Optik, 2014 - Elsevier
For single sample face recognition, there are limited training samples, so the traditional face
recognition methods are not applicable to this problem. In this paper we propose to combine …

Improving representation-based classification for robust face recognition

H Zhang, Z Zhang, Z Li, Y Chen, J Shi - Journal of Modern Optics, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
The sparse representation classification (SRC) method proposed by Wright et al. is
considered as the breakthrough of face recognition because of its good performance …
