TL;DR: A Person Transfer Generative Adversarial Network (PTGAN) is proposed to relieve the expensive costs of annotating new training samples and comprehensive experiments show that the domain gap could be substantially narrowed-down by the PTGAN.

TL;DR: A novel non-statistics based face representation approach, local Gabor binary pattern histogram sequence (LGBPHS), in which training procedure is unnecessary to construct the face model, so that the generalizability problem is naturally avoided.

TL;DR: Experimental results on the Brodatz and KTH-TIPS2-a texture databases show that WLD impressively outperforms the other widely used descriptors (e.g., Gabor and SIFT), and experimental results on human face detection also show a promising performance comparable to the best known results onThe MIT+CMU frontal face test set, the AR face data set, and the CMU profile test set.

TL;DR: The evaluation protocol based on the CAS-PEAL-R1 database is discussed and the performance of four algorithms are presented as a baseline to do the following: elementarily assess the difficulty of the database for face recognition algorithms; preference evaluation results for researchers using the database; and identify the strengths and weaknesses of the commonly used algorithms.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a Pose-driven Deep Convolutional (PDC) model to learn improved feature extraction and matching models from end to end, which explicitly leverages the human part cues to alleviate the pose variations and learn robust feature representations from both the global image and different local parts.
