Face Recognition and Retrieval in Video Basic concept of Face Recog. & retrieval And their basic methods. C.S.E. Kwon Min Hyuk
True? False? • Q1 : in recently, face recognition researches focus on video-based rather than still image-based (O / X) • Q2 : There is three approaches; (O/ X) • 1. key-frame based • 2. Temporal model based • 3. image set based • Face variation and expression make face recognition difficult. (O/X)
Answers • All of statement is true.
Intro • Q1 : Why do we need Face recognition system? • Increasing request to search specific people related video contents • Can be applied at security, human-computer inter action etc.
Intro • Q2: What is recent trend of approach to Face recog.? • Traditionally ,focused on Still image-basedappr. • Recently , focused on Video-based appr. • We can extract more information from video than that of still image.
General steps for Face recognition • Where is face located in video frame? • We should look for which part of the frame is face. Face detecting and Tracking. • Recognizing face • There is some basic approach for Face Recog. • Key fame-based approach • Temporal Model-based approach • Image set-based approach
Face detection • Using statistical geometric model • From the frame Extract appearance features such as edge, intensity, color(histogram) • To evolve the face detector by using machine learning tech. • Adaboost • Neural Network • Support Vector Machine
Face tracking • Face detection’s limit. • It detect only frontal or near frontal view. • Tracking face is needed to handle large head motions. • Face tracking • Difficulties • Method to solve
Face tracking • Difficulty 1 : There is • Face appearance variation • 3D motion • Background change • Method to solve: face online boosting • Using tracked images in previous frames. • Applying current result to tracking seq. for next frame. (real-time updating feedback) example in next slide
Example for online boosting algorithm. So-called “adaptive tracker.”
Face tracking(con’d) • Difficulty 2: The adaptive tracker can adapt to non-targets. • Method to solve : add basal appearance of target • Teaching the tracker about some basal appearance of the target. • Basal appearance : Image set of various target condition (face expression, pose etc)
After face detecting and tracking • We can determine the part of frame where face is located. Now, we can get to face recognition.
Face Recognition • Basic steps for Face Recog. • 1. get weak evidence in individual frame. • 2. collect that evidence over time. • 3. lead(determine) reliable result. • Three approaches • 1. key-frame approach • 2. temporal model-based approach • 3. image set-based approach
Key-frame based approach • Treat each video as a collection of images. • Basic steps of the approach. • 1. input data(still images, video) • 2. from data, extract images of the target. • Extracted images are called key-frames or examplars. • 3. matching them with all or subset of other video sequence(where the target is).
Key-frame based approach(con’d) • How can we get some ‘good’ key-frame from input data? • By image-based recognition • In each frame, probe the nose and eyes’ triangular structure. If it is in the frame, then face recognition is performed. And key-frame is extracted.
Key-frame based approach(con’d) • Applying K-Means clustering • Cluster means a group whose elements have some common property. • This algorithm is grouping some data observations into one of cluster which has nearest mean.
Key-frame based approach(con’d) • Other algorithms • Isomap algorithm • Combination of majority and probabilistic voting. • And so on. (I’ll skip the details.) • Finally, all or subset of video sequence will be compared(matched) with extracted ‘good’ key-frame to determine recognition.
Temporal Model Based approach • To handle face dynamics • Ex: face expression(non-rigid) or head movement(rigid) • Using temporal sequence(continuous coherent) • Ex> Using whole sequence of changing face dynamics as a image set.
Temporal Model Based approach(con’d) • Basic methods • Matching the face Trajectory. • Trajectory means the moving face’s path(orbit) through in surfaces. • Two(model and object) trajectory distance accumulates recognition evidence over time.
Temporal Model Based approach(con’d) • Other method • Trained statistical face model • Using density estimation. • Probabilistic approach • Using time-series state space variables • Hidden Markov Model • Fusing pose and person-discriminant features. I’ll skip all of details.
Image set based approach • This approach uses • both image collected over consecutive time (similar with temporal image set) • And independent still image set (similar with key-frame) • Combination of both temporal and key-frame based approaches. • Two major approaches. • Statistical modal-based • Mutual subspace-based
Image set based approach(con’d) • Image set classification • Non-parametric sample based • Compare representative images of each image sets • Parametric model-based • In terms of probabilistic, compare two distributions of each image set.
Image set based approach(con’d) • Statistical Model-based • To determine recognition, consider similarity of two manifolds • manifold is large group (more than cluster) which contains several cluster. • Drawback • Need to solve the difficult parameter estimation problem.
Image set based approach(con’d) • Mutual Subspace-Based Model(MSM) • To determine Similarity between image sets • measure by the smallest principal angles between subspaces. • CMSM is expansion of MSM • Assume more constraints.
Face Retrieval • It is difficult to recognize face in the uncontrolled condition like face dynamics , light intensity, hair styles • There is two applications 1. Person Retrieval 2. Cast listing
Person Retrieval • Face recognition tech. are applied. • Basic method • Using head model (with multiple texture map) • Step1. rendering(extract or generate) face images • Step2. identifying target face. • Step3. updating the texture map of the model.
Cast listing (cast : actors or characters in film) • Automatic cast listing is interesting problem. • Based on face recognition • Because face is repeatable cue in the film • Using image clustering method • For accuracy, Treat clothing appearance additional cues for clustering.
Challenges and Future direction • Databases. • Constructed in lab. enviro. Not a real world. • Limited face appearance of variation. • Low-quality Video data • Exist lots of noise hard to filter out. • Computational Cost • Face recognition requires quite high power devices.
Conclusion • Face recog. can be applied in various area. • Face detecting and Tracking. • Three general Methods • Key-frame based • Temporal model based • Image set based • Person Retrieval and Cast listing • Challenges to evolve Face recog. system.
