In the past years, numerous methods have been introduced to reliably detect digital face image manipulations. Lately, the generalizability of these schemes has been questioned in particular with respect to image post-processing. Image…
Though tremendous strides have been made in object recognition, one of the remaining open challenges is detecting small objects. We explore three aspects of the problem in the context of finding small faces: the role of scale invariance,…
Face recognition from image or video is a popular topic in biometrics research. Many public places usually have surveillance cameras for video capture and these cameras have their significant value for security purpose. It is widely…
Scientific articles published prior to the "age of digitization" in the late 1990s contain figures which are "trapped" within their scanned pages. While progress to extract figures and their captions has been made, there is currently no…
Most tools for accessing digitized historical newspapers emphasize relatively simple search; but, as increasing numbers of digitized historical newspapers and other historical resources become available we can consider much richer modes of…
A face image not only provides details about the identity of a subject but also reveals several attributes such as gender, race, sexual orientation, and age. Advancements in machine learning algorithms and popularity of sharing images on…
Automated face recognition is a widely adopted machine learning technology for contactless identification of people in various processes such as automated border control, secure login to electronic devices, community surveillance, tracking…
Numerous activities in our daily life, including transactions, access to services and transportation, require us to verify who we are by showing our ID documents containing face images, e.g. passports and driver licenses. An automatic…
In recent year, tremendous strides have been made in face detection thanks to deep learning. However, most published face detectors deteriorate dramatically as the faces become smaller. In this paper, we present the Small Faces Attention…
The field of animal affective computing is rapidly emerging, and analysis of facial expressions is a crucial aspect. One of the most significant challenges that researchers in the field currently face is the scarcity of high-quality,…
Automated one-to-many (1:N) face recognition is a powerful investigative tool commonly used by law enforcement agencies. In this context, potential matches resulting from automated 1:N recognition are reviewed by human examiners prior to…
Data augmentation has been highly effective in narrowing the data gap and reducing the cost for human annotation, especially for tasks where ground truth labels are difficult and expensive to acquire. In face recognition, large pose and…
Starting in the seventies, face recognition has become one of the most researched topics in computer vision and biometrics. Traditional methods based on hand-crafted features and traditional machine learning techniques have recently been…
Visual content has become the primary source of information, as evident in the billions of images and videos, shared and uploaded on the Internet every single day. This has led to an increase in alterations in images and videos to make them…
Photos of faces captured in unconstrained environments, such as large crowds, still constitute challenges for current face recognition approaches as often faces are occluded by objects or people in the foreground. However, few studies have…
Nowadays, visual data forgery detection plays an increasingly important role in social and economic security with the rapid development of generative models. Existing face forgery detectors still can't achieve satisfactory performance…
Shadow detection in general photos is a nontrivial problem, due to the complexity of the real world. Though recent shadow detectors have already achieved remarkable performance on various benchmark data, their performance is still limited…
As the features from the traditional Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Local Directional Patterns (LDP) are found to be ineffective for face recognition, we have proposed a new approach derived on the basis of Information sets whereby the…
AI-based image generation has continued to rapidly improve, producing increasingly more realistic images with fewer obvious visual flaws. AI-generated images are being used to create fake online profiles which in turn are being used for…
This publication presents methods for face detection, analysis and recognition: fast normalized cross-correlation (fast correlation coefficient) between multiple templates based face pre-detection method, method for detection of exact face…
