A feature based face recognition technique using Zernike moments
TLDR
A face recognition approach using Zernike moments is presented for the main purpose of detecting faces in surveillance cameras using a Viola-Jones detector and a kNN classifier.Abstract:
In this paper, a face recognition approach using Zernike moments is presented for the main purpose of detecting faces in surveillance cameras. Zernike moments are invariant
to rotation and scale and these properties make them an appropriate feature for automatic face recognition. A Viola-Jones detector based on the Adaboost algorithm is employed for detecting the face within an image sequence. Pre-processing is carried out wherever it is needed. A fuzzy enhancement algorithm is also applied to achieve uniform illumination. Zernike moments are then computed from each detected facial image. The final classification is achieved using a kNN classifier. The performance of the proposed methodology is compared on three different benchmark datasets. The results illustrate the efficacy of Zernike moments for the face recognition problem in video surveillance.read more

On the selection of 2D Krawtchouk moments for face recognition
TL;DR: The effectiveness of selecting the discriminatory set of KCMs as the global and local face features as opposed to traditional features obtained from heuristic choice of fixed-order moments or projection of the moments for recognizing an identity is presented.

Fast and High Capacity Digital Image Watermarking Technique Based on Phase of Zernike Moments
Ekta Walia,Anu Suneja +1 more
TL;DR: The watermarking technique proposed by the authors is robust against rotation, scaling, flipping, additive noise and lossy compression, and as the number of embedded watermark bits increases, the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio decreases and hence quality of watermarked image degrades.

Bayesian face recognition using 2D Gaussian-Hermite moments
TL;DR: The proposed DGHM features show superior recognition or verification performance on the standard protocols of the unconstrained face databases when comparing with the commonly referred descriptors such as the local binary pattern or scale-invariant feature transform.
