The results show that association rules extracted from social context can be used to augment face recognition and improve the identification performance.
Abstract
Humans are very efficient at recognizing familiar face images even in challenging conditions. One reason for such capabilities is the ability to understand social context between individuals. Sometimes the identity of the person in a photo can be inferred based on the identity of other persons in the same photo, when some social context between them is known. This research presents an algorithm to utilize cooccurrence of individuals as the social context to improve face recognition. Association rule mining is utilized to infer multi-level social context among subjects from a large repository of social transactions. The results are demonstrated on the G-album and on the SN-collection pertaining to 4675 identities prepared by the authors from a social networking website. The results show that association rules extracted from social context can be used to augment face recognition and improve the identification performance.

Discovering informative social subgraphs and predicting pairwise relationships from group photos

TL;DR: A novel framework to connect faces of different attributes and positions as a face graph and discover informative subgraphs to represent social subgroups in group photos is proposed and significantly outperform prior work which considers merely facial attributes for determining pairwise relationships.
