Face recognition in the visible and Near Infrared range has received a lot of attention in recent years. The current Multispectral (MS) imaging systems used for facial recognition are based on multiple cameras having multiple sensors. These acquisition systems are normally slow because they take one MS image in several shots, which makes them unable to acquire images in real time and to capture moving scenes. On the other hand, currently there are snapshot multispectral imaging systems which integrate a single sensor with Multispectral Filter Arrays (MSFA) allow having at each acquisition an image on several spectra. These systems drastically reduce image acquisition time and are able to capture moving scenes in real time. This paper proposes a study of robust facial recognition using Multispectral Filter Array acquisition system. For this goal, a MSFA one-shot camera was used to collect the images and a robust facial recognition method based on Fast Discrete Curvelet Transform and Convolutional Neural Network is proposed. This camera covers the spectral range from 650 nm to 950 nm. A comparison of the facial recognition system using Multispectral Filter Arrays camera is made with those that using multiple cameras. Experimental results proved that face recognition systems whose acquisition systems are designed using MSFA perform more efficiently with an accuracy of 100%.
