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.

Nonnegative Discriminant Matrix Factorization

TL;DR: A novel method called nonnegative discriminant matrix factorization (NDMF) is proposed for image classification that integrates the nonnegative constraint, orthogonality, and discriminant information in the objective function and is proposed to enhance the discriminant ability of the learned base matrix.

Combined subspace method using global and local features for face recognition

TL;DR: The experimental results show that the combined subspace method gives better recognition rate than other methods and is evaluated in view of the Bayes error, which shows how well samples can be classified.

Generalized Robust Regression for Jointly Sparse Subspace Learning

TL;DR: The result indicates that GRR is a robust and efficient regression method for face recognition, by incorporating the elastic factor on the loss function, which can enhance the robustness to obtain more projections for feature selection or classification.

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.
