Face recognition is one of the popular areas of research in the field of computer vision. It is mainly used for identification and security system. One of the major challenges in face recognition is identification under numerous illumination environments by changing the direction of light or modifying the lighting magnitude. Exacting illumination invariant features is an effective approach to solve this problem. Conventional face recognition algorithms based on nonsubsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) and bionic mode are not capable enough to recognize the similar faces with great accuracy. Hence, in this paper, an attempt is made to propose an enhanced cerebellum-basal ganglia mechanism (CBGM) for face recognition. The integral projection and geometric feature assortment method are used to acquire the facial image features. The cognition model is deployed which is based on the cerebellum-basal ganglia mechanism and is applied for extraction of features from the face image to achieve greater accuracy for recognition of face images. The experimental results reveal that the enhanced CBGM algorithm can effectively recognize face images with greater accuracy. The recognition rate of 100 AR face images has been found to be 96.9%. The high recognition accuracy rate has been achieved by the proposed CBGM technique.

In the contactless delivery scenario, the self-pickup cabinet is an important terminal delivery device, and face recognition is one of the efficient ways to achieve contactless access express delivery. In order to effectively recognize face images under unrestricted environments, an unrestricted face recognition algorithm based on transfer learning is proposed in this study. First, the region extraction network of the faster RCNN algorithm is improved to improve the recognition speed of the algorithm. Then, the first transfer learning is applied between the large ImageNet dataset and the face image dataset under restricted conditions. The second transfer learning is applied between face image under restricted conditions and unrestricted face image datasets. Finally, the unrestricted face image is processed by the image enhancement algorithm to increase its similarity with the restricted face image, so that the second transfer learning can be carried out effectively. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better recognition rate and recognition speed on the CASIA-WebFace dataset, FLW dataset, and MegaFace dataset.

A contactless delivery cabinet is an important courier self-pickup device, for the reason that COVID-19 can be transmitted by human contact. During the pandemic period of COVID-19, wearing a mask to take delivery is a common application scenario, which makes the study of masked face recognition algorithm greatly significant. A masked face recognition algorithm based on attention mechanism is proposed in this paper in order to improve the recognition rate of masked face images. First, the masked face image is separated by the local constrained dictionary learning method, and the face image part is separated. Then, the dilated convolution is used to reduce the resolution reduction in the subsampling process. Finally, according to the important feature information of the face image, the attention mechanism neural network is used to reduce the information loss in the subsampling process and improve the face recognition rate. In the experimental part, the RMFRD and SMFRD databases of Wuhan University were selected to compare the recognition rate. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a better recognition rate.

In order to solve the problem of low recognition accuracy in recognition of 3D face images collected by traditional sensors, a face recognition algorithm for 3D point cloud collected by mixed image sensors is proposed. The algorithm first uses the 3D wheelbase to expand the face image edge. According to the 3D wheelbase, the noise of extended image is detected, and median filtering is used to eliminate the detected noise. Secondly, the priority of the boundary pixels to recognize the face image in the denoising image recognition process is determined, and the key parts such as the illuminance line are analyzed, so that the recognition of the 3D point cloud face image is completed. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm improves the recognition accuracy of 3D face images, which recognition time is lower than that of the traditional algorithm by about 4 times, and the recognition efficiency is high.

At present, the face recognition method based on deep belief network (DBN) has advantages of automatically learning the abstract information of face images and being affected slightly by active factors, so it becomes the main method in the face recognition area. Because DBN ignores the local information of face images, the face recognition rate based on DBN is badly affected. To solve this problem, a face recognition method based on center-symmetric local binary pattern (CS-LBP) and DBN (FRMCD) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the face image is divided into several subblocks. Secondly, CS-LBP is used to extract texture features of each image subblock. Thirdly, texture feature histograms are formed and input into the DBN visual layer. Finally, face classification and face recognition are completed through deep learning in DBN. Through the experiments on face databases ORL, Extend Yale B, and CMU-PIE by the proposed method (FRMCD), the best partitioning way of the face image and the hidden unit number of the DBN hidden layer are obtained. Then, comparative experiments between the FRMCD and traditional methods are performed. The results show that the recognition rate of FRMCD is superior to those of traditional methods; the highest recognition rate is up to 98.82%. When the number of training samples is less, the FRMCD has more significant advantages. Compared with the method based on local binary pattern (LBP) and DBN, the time-consuming of FRMCD is shorter.

A face recognition algorithm based on NMPKPCA algorithm presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm when compared with conventional Principal component analysis (PCA) algorithms has an improved recognition Rate for face images with large variations in illumination, facial expressions. In this technique, first phase congruency features are extracted from the face image so that effects due to illumination variations are avoided by considering phase component of image. Then, face images are divided into small sub images and the kernel PCA approach is applied to each of these sub images. but, dividing into small or large modules creates some problems in recognition. So a special modulation called neighborhood defined modularization approach presented in this paper, so that effects due to facial variations are avoided. Then, kernel PCA has been applied to each module to extract features. So a feature extraction technique for improving recognition accuracy of a visual image based facial recognition system presented in this paper.

The presence of fake pictures affects the reliability of visible face images under specific circumstances. This paper presents a novel adversarial neural network designed named as the FTSGAN for infrared and visible image fusion and we utilize FTSGAN model to fuse the face image features of infrared and visible image to improve the effect of face recognition. In FTSGAN model design, the Frobenius norm (F), total variation norm (TV), and structural similarity index measure (SSIM) are employed. The F and TV are used to limit the gray level and the gradient of the image, while the SSIM is used to limit the image structure. The FTSGAN fuses infrared and visible face images that contains bio-information for heterogeneous face recognition tasks. Experiments based on the FTSGAN using hundreds of face images demonstrate its excellent performance. The principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discrimination analysis (LDA) are involved in face recognition. The face recognition performance after fusion improved by 1.9% compared to that before fusion, and the final face recognition rate was 94.4%. This proposed method has better quality, faster rate, and is more robust than the methods that only use visible images for face recognition.

Face recognition is difficult due to the higher dimension of face image features and fewer training samples. Firstly, in order to improve the performance of feature extraction, we inventively construct a double hierarchical network structure convolution neural network (CNN) model. The front-end network adopts a relatively simple network model to achieve rough feature extraction from input images and obtain multiple suspect face candidate windows. The back-end network uses a relatively complex network model to filter the best detection window and return the face size and position by nonmaximum suppression. Then, in order to fully extract the face features in the optimal window, a face recognition algorithm based on intermediate layers connected by the deep CNN is proposed in this paper. Based on AlexNet, the front, intermediate and end convolution layers are combined by deep connection. Then, the feature vector describing the face image is obtained by the operation of the pooling layer and the full connection layer. Finally, the auxiliary classifier training method is used to train the model to ensure the effectiveness of the features of the intermediate layer. Experimental results based on open face database show that the recognition accuracy of the proposed algorithm is higher than that of other face recognition algorithms compared in this paper.

This paper proposed a new face recognition algorithm based on Haar-Like features and Gentle Adaboost feature selection via sparse representation. Firstly, All the images including face images and non face images are normalized to size and then Haar-Like features are extracted . The number of Haar-Like features can be as large as 12,519. In order to reduce the feature dimension and retain the most effective features for face recognition, Gentle Adaboost algorithm is used for feature selection. Selected features are used for face recognition via sparse representation classification (SRC) algorithm. Testing experiments were carried out on the AR database to test the performance of the new proposed algorithm. Compared with traditional algorithms like NS, NN, SRC, and SVM, the new algorithm achieved a better recognition rate. The effect of face recognition rate changing with feature dimension showed that the new proposed algorithm performed a higher recognition rate than SRC algorithm all the time with the increasing of feature dimension, which fully proved the effectiveness and superiority of the new proposed algorithm.

This research proposes a model of face recognition using the method of joining two face images from left and right lens from a stereo vision camera namely half-join method. Half-join method is used in face image normalization processing. The proposed half-join method is a face images joining model, which is called asymmetrical half-join. In asymmetrical half-join method, a RoI (region of interest) of face image from left and right lenses are provided based on axis center of each eye in eye detection. The cropping of face image from asymmetrical half-join model has different width depends on eyes coordinate location. The proposed system shows that the asymmetrical half-join method can produce a better of face recognition rate. The experimental results show that the asymmetrical half-join method has a better recognition rate and computation time than single vision method and symmetrical half-join method.

The biometric identification of a person using face trait is more efficient compared to other traits as the co-operation of a person is not required. In this paper, we propose a feature vector compression approach for face recognition using convolution and DWT.The one level DWT is applied on face images and considered only LL band. The normalized technique is applied on LL sub band to reduce high value coefficients into lower range of values ranging between Zero and one. The novel concept of linear convolution is applied on original image and LL band matrix to enhance quality of face images to obtain unique features. The Gaussian filter is applied on the output of convolution block to reduce high frequency components to generate fine-tuned feature vectors. The numbers of feature vectors of many samples of single person are converted into a single vector which reduces number of features of each person. The Euclidean distance is used to compare test image features with features of database persons to compute performance parameters. It is observed that the performance recognition rate is high compared to existing techniques.
