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.

Face‐likeness and image variability drive responses in human face‐selective ventral regions

TL;DR: These studies provide novel evidence that face‐selective responses correlate with the perceived face‐likeness of stimuli, but this effect is revealed only when image variability is controlled across conditions, and show that variability is a powerful factor that drives responses across the ventral stream.

The POSTECH face database (PF07) and performance evaluation

TL;DR: A face database POSTECH face database (PF07) is constructed, which contains the true-color face images of 200 people, 100 men and 100 women, representing 320 various images per person.

Precise localization of eye centers in low resolution color images

TL;DR: This paper introduces an automatic, non-intrusive method for precise eye center localization in low resolution images, acquired from single low-cost cameras, that uses color information to derive a novel eye map that emphasizes the iris area and a radial symmetry transform which operates both on the original eye images and the eye map.

Validating a two-high-threshold measurement model for confidence rating data in recognition

TL;DR: Comparisons with SDT show that both models behave similarly, a case that highlights the notion that both modelling approaches can be valuable (and complementary) elements in a researcher's toolbox.

Discriminant image filter learning for face recognition with local binary pattern like representation

TL;DR: This paper proposes to learn the discriminative image filter to improve the discriminant power of the LBP like feature and a coupled discriminant image filters learning method is proposed to deal with the heterogenous face images matching problem by reducing the feature gap between the heterogeneous images.

Eigenfaces for recognition

TL;DR: A near-real-time computer system that can locate and track a subject's head, and then recognize the person by comparing characteristics of the face to those of known individuals, and that is easy to implement using a neural network architecture.

Face recognition by elastic bunch graph matching

TL;DR: A system for recognizing human faces from single images out of a large database containing one image per person, based on a Gabor wavelet transform, which is constructed from a small get of sample image graphs.

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.
