This paper comprehensively surveys the development of face hallucination (FH), including
both face super-resolution and face sketch-photo synthesis techniques. Indeed, these two …

This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive study on facial-sketch synthesis (FSS).
However, due to the high cost of obtaining hand-drawn sketch datasets, there is a lack of a …

Low rank matrix approximation (LRMA), which aims to recover the underlying low rank
matrix from its degraded observation, has a wide range of applications in computer vision …

This article presents a general sampling method, called granular-ball sampling (GBS), for
classification problems by introducing the idea of granular computing. The GBS method …

Cross-modality face recognition is an emerging topic due to the wide-spread usage of
different sensors in day-to-day life applications. The development of face recognition …

Face images captured in unconstrained environments usually contain significant pose
variation, which dramatically degrades the performance of algorithms designed to recognize …

Face photo-sketch synthesis and recognition has many applications in digital entertainment
and law enforcement. Recently, generative adversarial networks (GANs) based methods …

This paper studies one interesting problem: how does the deep neural network (DNN)
architecture affect the image quality assessment (IQA) performance? In order to find the …

Synthesizing face sketches from real photos and its inverse have many applications.
However, photo/sketch synthesis remains a challenging problem due to the fact that photo …

Face photo-sketch synthesis aims at generating a facial sketch/photo conditioned on a given
photo/sketch. It covers wide applications including digital entertainment and law …
