The FERET evaluation methodology for face-recognition algorithms

TLDR
Two of the most critical requirements in support of producing reliable face-recognition systems are a large database of facial images and a testing procedure to evaluate systems.
Abstract
Two of the most critical requirements in support of producing reliable face-recognition systems are a large database of facial images and a testing procedure to evaluate systems. The Face Recognition Technology (FERET) program has addressed both issues through the FERET database of facial images and the establishment of the FERET tests. To date, 14,126 images from 1,199 individuals are included in the FERET database, which is divided into development and sequestered portions of the database. In September 1996, the FERET program administered the third in a series of FERET face-recognition tests. The primary objectives of the third test were to 1) assess the state of the art, 2) identify future areas of research, and 3) measure algorithm performance.

Linear Laplacian Discrimination for Feature Extraction

TL;DR: The linear Laplacian discrimination (LLD) algorithm/or discriminant feature extraction is an extension of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and the motivation is to address the issue that LDA cannot work well in cases where sample spaces are non-Euclidean.

Learning discriminative local binary patterns for face recognition

TL;DR: A simple method to learn discriminative LBPs in a supervised manner that represents an LBP-like descriptor as a set of pixel comparisons within a neighborhood and heuristically seeks for a setof pixel comparisons so as to maximize a Fisher separability criterion for the resulting histograms.

Using discriminant eigenfeatures for image retrieval

TL;DR: This paper describes the automatic selection of features from an image training set using the theories of multidimensional discriminant analysis and the associated optimal linear projection, and demonstrates the effectiveness of these most discriminating features for view-based class retrieval from a large database of widely varying real-world objects.

Probabilistic visual learning for object representation

TL;DR: An unsupervised technique for visual learning is presented, which is based on density estimation in high-dimensional spaces using an eigenspace decomposition and is applied to the probabilistic visual modeling, detection, recognition, and coding of human faces and nonrigid objects.
