Performance Evaluation Metrics and Spaces for Class Imbalance

Objectives and structure of the thesis: The main objective of this thesis is to design specialized classifier ensembles to address the issue of imbalance in recognition of faces from video in face re-identification application. This system must avoid bias of...

The Proposed Approach – A Synthetic plus Variational Model

Still-to-Video Face Recognition Systems In a still-to-video FR scenario, there is typically one or more still image(s) to enroll an individual to the system while a set of video frames is available for recognition. Given one or few reference still...

Local Template Matching Techniques

Holistic matching consists in exploiting the whole facial region as the input face recognition. This was abundantly used during the first introduction of the Eigenface approach (Zhang et al., 1997) by using projection techniques such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA)...
