Abstract
This paper deals with Automatic Face Recognition (AFR). A novel approach which combines the SIFT and SURF features for the face representation is proposed. The obtained combined SIFT/SURF descriptor is then used for face comparison by the adapted Kepenekci matching method. The proposed method is evaluated on the FERET and CTK corpora. The obtained recognition rates are 98.4% and 64.6% respectively. These recognition scores show that our approach outperforms significantly all other methods on these corpora. The differences between recognition error rates of the proposed approach and the second best one are 41% and 7% in relative value respectively.

Illumination, Pose and Occlusion Invariant Face Recognition from Range Images Using ERFI Model

TL;DR: The pivotal contribution of the authors is to recognize the 3D face images from range images in the unconstrained environment i.e. under varying illumination, pose as well as occlusion that are considered to be the most challenging task in the domain of face recognition.

Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints

TL;DR: This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.

Rapid object detection using a boosted cascade of simple features

TL;DR: A machine learning approach for visual object detection which is capable of processing images extremely rapidly and achieving high detection rates and the introduction of a new image representation called the "integral image" which allows the features used by the detector to be computed very quickly.

TL;DR: Experimental results show that robust object recognition can be achieved in cluttered partially occluded images with a computation time of under 2 seconds.

Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints

TL;DR: The Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (or SIFT) algorithm is a highly robust method to extract and consequently match distinctive invariant features from images that can then be used to reliably match objects in diering images.

Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF)

TL;DR: A novel scale- and rotation-invariant detector and descriptor, coined SURF (Speeded-Up Robust Features), which approximates or even outperforms previously proposed schemes with respect to repeatability, distinctiveness, and robustness, yet can be computed and compared much faster.
