A video based face recognition algorithm that computes a discriminative video signature as an ordered list of still face images to facilitate matching two videos with large variations is presented.
Abstract
Face recognition from still face images suffers due to intrapersonal variations caused by pose, illumination, and expression that degrade the performance. On the other hand, videos provide abundant information that can be leveraged to compensate the limitations of still face images and enhance face recognition performance. This paper presents a video based face recognition algorithm that computes a discriminative video signature as an ordered list of still face images. The video signature embeds diverse intra-personal and temporal variations across multiple frames, thus facilitates matching two videos with large variations. Two videos are matched by comparing their discriminative signatures using the Kendall tau similarity distance measure. Performance comparison with the benchmark results and a commercial face recognition system on the publicly available YouTube faces database show the efficacy of the proposed video based face recognition algorithm.

On video based face recognition through adaptive sparse dictionary

TL;DR: This paper proposes a video-based face recognition method which improves upon the sparse representation framework with an intelligent and adaptive sparse dictionary that updates the current probe image into the training matrix based on continuously monitoring the probe video through a novel confidence criterion and a Bayesian inference scheme.

An approach to improvise recognition rate from occluded and pose variant faces

TL;DR: A model that can increase the recognition rate with faces of different pose and faces subjected to occlusion is proposed and the technique of in-painting to restore the occluded face in a frame of video is introduced.
