In this paper we analyze reliability of the real-time system for face detection and recognition from low-resolution images, e.g., from video monitoring images. First, we briefly describe main features of the standards for biometric face images. Available scientific databases have been checked for compliance with these biometric standards. During the research we have considered both the correctness of extraction (location) of the face from the image as well as the correctness of the identification (based on the eigenfaces approach). To the tests we have used the face databases that allow to study tolerance to illumination and face positions. We have compared various face detection techniques and analyzed minimum requirements for the resolution of facial images. Finally, an influence of the resolution reduction on the FAR/FRR of the recognition is presented.
This paper presents the detailed analysis of implementation issues occurred during preparation of the novel iris recognition system. First, we shortly describe the currently available acquisition systems and databases of iris images, which were used for our tests. Next, we concentrate on the feature extraction and coding with the execution time analysis. Results of the average execution time of loading the image, segmentation, normalization, and feature encoding, are presented. Finally, DET plots illustrate the recognition accuracy for IrisBath database.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
