Face Recognition in Uncontrolled Environment
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
This paper presents a novel method of facial image representation for face recognition in uncontrolled environment. It is named as augmented local binary patterns (A-LBP) that works on both, uniform and non-uniform patterns. It replaces the central non-uniform pattern with a majority value of the neighbouring uniform patterns obtained after processing all neighbouring non-uniform patterns. These patterns are finally combined with the neighbouring uniform patterns, in order to extract discriminatory information from the local descriptors. The experimental results indicate the vitality of the proposed method on particular face datasets, where the images are prone to extreme variations of illumination.

Tracking Systems as Thinging Machine: A Case Study of a Service Company
Object tracking systems play important roles in tracking moving objects and overcoming problems such as safety, security and other location-related applications. Problems arise from the difficulties in creating a well-de...
Algorithm Selection for Constraint Optimization Domains
In this paper we investigate methods for selecting the best algorithms in classic distributed constraint optimization problems. While these are NP-complete problems, many heuristics have nonetheless been proposed. We fou...
