Simple Face Recognition for Frontal Profile Faces
So we are nearing the end of it … the most important part of it - Face Recognition. Well by now the face is detected in a photograph but what bout recognising those faces in a series of images in the Visual Databasae. Half our work is already done What remains needs to involve Artificial Intelligence.
We apply many edge masks to all faces to get an Eigen Face.
Edge Mask is some what like this
1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0
1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0
1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0
and so on …
After applying these edge masks the resulting image is an Eigen Face.
This Eigen Face is then fed to the input units of an Back propagation Neural Network which is already trained with a database for determining a face from another face, n will come up with the name of the person the face is tagged with.
Thats all for today guys … Hopefully soon i ll come up with a working algo for all this. Until Then .. Good Bye !!!
