Abstract

Wearable devices offer immense opportunities in both consumer and enterprise domains due to the hands-free interaction modality and the ability to provide information in real-time. However, due to hardware limitations, it presents a notable challenge to complex applications that have stringent demands on computational efficiency. Leveraging on the computing power of a connected mobile device, we propose a new multi-threaded asynchronous structure to implement opportunistic multi-tasking. We demonstrate an application of the structure for seamless face recognition for social interactions. The experimental studies show that the proposed structure can achieve better performance than a sequential synchronous one. The proposed method can be extended to similar applications in wearable devices.

Age-Invariant Face Recognition

One of the challenges in automatic face recognition is to achieve temporal invariance. In other words, the goal is to come up with a representation and matching scheme that is robust to changes due to facial aging. Facial aging is a complex process that ...
Face recognition under varying illumination using gradientfaces

In this correspondence, we propose a novel method to extract illumination insensitive features for face recognition under varying lighting called the Gradientfaces. Theoretical analysis shows Gradientfaces is an illumination insensitive measure, and ...
Automatic face analysis system based on face recognition and facial physiognomy
ICHIT'06: Proceedings of the 1st international conference on Advances in hybrid information technology

An automatic face analysis system is proposed which uses face recognition and facial physiognomy. It first detects human's face, extracts its features, and classifies the shape of facial features. It will analyze the person's facial physiognomy and then ...
