Iris-based biometric identification is increasingly recognized for its significant accuracy and long-term stability compared to other biometric modalities such as fingerprints or facial features. However, all biometric modalities are highly…
Iris Recognition (IR) is one of the market's most reliable and accurate biometric systems. Today, it is challenging to build NIR-capturing devices under the premise of hardware price reduction. Commercial NIR sensors are protected from…
Existing theoretical work on Bayes-optimal fair classifiers usually considers a single (binary) sensitive feature. In practice, individuals are often defined by multiple sensitive features. In this paper, we characterize the Bayes-optimal…
Existing frameworks for image stitching often provide visually reasonable stitchings. However, they suffer from blurry artifacts and disparities in illumination, depth level, etc. Although the recent learning-based stitchings relax such…
Recent technological advances in synthetic data have enabled the generation of images with such high quality that human beings cannot tell the difference between real-life photographs and Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated images. Given…
Microarray gene expression data-based tumor classification is an active and challenging issue. In this paper, an integrated tumor classification framework is presented, which aims to exploit information in existing available samples, and…
Set-based person re-identification (SReID) is a matching problem that aims to verify whether two sets are of the same identity (ID). Existing SReID models typically generate a feature representation per image and aggregate them to represent…
This work explores the biases in learning processes based on deep neural network architectures. We analyze how bias affects deep learning processes through a toy example using the MNIST database and a case study in gender detection from…
In generative adversarial networks, improving discriminators is one of the key components for generation performance. As image classifiers are biased toward texture and debiasing improves accuracy, we investigate 1) if the discriminators…
Cross-spectral biometrics, such as matching imagery of faces or persons from visible (RGB) and infrared (IR) bands, have rapidly advanced over the last decade due to increasing sensitivity, size, quality, and ubiquity of IR focal plane…
The numbers of persons who can be enrolled by their iris patterns with no identity collisions is studied in relation to the biometric entropy extracted, and the decision operating threshold. The population size at which identity collision…
Texture classification became one of the problems which has been paid much attention on by image processing scientists since late 80s. Consequently, since now many different methods have been proposed to solve this problem. In most of these…
In this paper, we proposed a novel pipeline for image-level classification in the hyperspectral images. By doing this, we show that the discriminative spectral information at image-level features lead to significantly improved performance…
Ising models are a simple generative approach to describing interacting binary variables. They have proven useful in a number of biological settings because they enable one to represent observed many-body correlations as the separable…
Gender is an important demographic attribute of people. This paper provides a survey of human gender recognition in computer vision. A review of approaches exploiting information from face and whole body (either from a still image or gait…
It is common to view people in real applications walking in arbitrary directions, holding items, or wearing heavy coats. These factors are challenges in gait-based application methods because they significantly change a person's appearance.…
Post-mortem iris recognition brings both hope to the forensic community (a short-term but accurate and fast means of verifying identity) as well as concerns to society (its potential illicit use in post-mortem impersonation). These hopes…
The aim of this work is to determine how vulnerable different iris coding methods are in relation to biometric template aging phenomenon. This is considered to be particularly important when the time lapse between gallery and probe samples…
Internet search affects people's cognition of the world, so mitigating biases in search results and learning fair models is imperative for social good. We study a unique gender bias in image search in this work: the search images are often…
Thresholding converts a greyscale image into a binary image, and is thus often a necessary segmentation step in image processing. For a human viewer however, thresholding usually has a negative impact on the legibility of document images.…
