Privacy Protection Method based on Multi-Object Authentication in Intelligent CCTV Environment
http://doi.org/10.5626/JOK.2019.46.2.154
In the intelligent CCTV surveillance environment, personal identity is confirmed based on face recognition. However, the recognition rate of the current face recognition technology is still faulty. In particular, face recognition may not work correctly due to various causes such as CCTV shot quality, weather, personal pose and facial expression, hairstyle, lighting condition, and so on. In this case, there is a great risk of exposing object`s privacy information in the video surveillance environment due to erroneous object judgment. The proposed method can increase the recognition rate of objects based on the CCTV-RFID hybrid authentication method, and thus protect the privacy of the image object.
Face Representation Based on Non-Alpha Weberface and Histogram Equalization for Face Recognition Under Varying Illumination Conditions
Ha-Young Kim, Hee-Jae Lee, Sang-Goog Lee
Facial appearance is greatly influenced by illumination conditions, and therefore illumination variation is one of the factors that degrades performance of face recognition systems. In this paper, we propose a robust method for face representation under varying illumination conditions, combining non-alpha Weberface (non-alpha WF) and histogram equalization. We propose a two-step method: (1) for a given face image, non-alpha WF, which is not applied a parameter for adjusting the intensity difference between neighboring pixels in WF, is computed; (2) histogram equalization is performed to non-alpha WF, to make a uniform histogram distribution globally and to enhance the contrast. (2D)²PCA is applied to extract low-dimensional discriminating features from the preprocessed face image. Experimental results on the extended Yale B face database and the CMU PIE face database show that the proposed method yielded better recognition rates than several illumination processing methods as well as the conventional WF, achieving average recognition rates of 93.31% and 97.25%, respectively.
Video Based Face Spoofing Detection Using Fourier Transform and Dense-SIFT
Security systems that use face recognition are vulnerable to spoofing attacks where unauthorized individuals use a photo or video of authorized users. In this work, we propose a method to detect a face spoofing attack with a video of an authorized person. The proposed method uses three sequential frames in the video to extract features by using Fourier Transform and Dense-SIFT filter. Then, classification is completed with a Support Vector Machine (SVM). Experimental results with a database of 200 valid and 200 spoof video clips showed 99% detection accuracy. The proposed method uses simplified features that require fewer memory and computational overhead while showing a high spoofing detection accuracy.
Locally Linear Embedding for Face Recognition with Simultaneous Diagonalization
Eun-Sol Kim, Yung-Kyun Noh, Byoung-Tak Zhang
Locally linear embedding (LLE) [1] is a type of manifold algorithms, which preserves inner product value between high-dimensional data when embedding the high-dimensional data to low-dimensional space. LLE closely embeds data points on the same subspace in low-dimensional space, because the data points have significant inner product values. On the other hand, if the data points are located orthogonal to each other, these are separately embedded in low-dimensional space, even though they are in close proximity to each other in high-dimensional space. Meanwhile, it is well known that the facial images of the same person under varying illumination lie in a low-dimensional linear subspace [2]. In this study, we suggest an improved LLE method for face recognition problem. The method maximizes the characteristic of LLE, which embeds the data points totally separately when they are located orthogonal to each other. To accomplish this, all of the subspaces made by each class are forced to locate orthogonally. To make all of the subspaces orthogonal, the simultaneous Diagonalization (SD) technique was applied. From experimental results, the suggested method is shown to dramatically improve the embedding results and classification performance.
Face Recognition Based on Facial Landmark Feature Descriptor in Unconstrained Environments
Daeok Kim, Jongkwang Hong, Hyeran Byun
This paper proposes a scalable face recognition method for unconstrained face databases, and shows a simple experimental result. Existing face recognition research usually has focused on improving the recognition rate in a constrained environment where illumination, face alignment, facial expression, and background is controlled. Therefore, it cannot be applied in unconstrained face databases. The proposed system is face feature extraction algorithm for unconstrained face recognition. First of all, we extract the area that represent the important features(landmarks) in the face, like the eyes, nose, and mouth. Each landmark is represented by a high-dimensional LBP(Local Binary Pattern) histogram feature vector. The multi-scale LBP histogram vector corresponding to a single landmark, becomes a low-dimensional face feature vector through the feature reduction process, PCA(Principal Component Analysis) and LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis). We use the Rank acquisition method and Precision at k(p@k) performance verification method for verifying the face recognition performance of the low-dimensional face feature by the proposed algorithm. To generate the experimental results of face recognition we used the FERET, LFW and PubFig83 database. The face recognition system using the proposed algorithm showed a better classification performance over the existing methods.
