FACIAL RECOGNITION: a Or FACIALRT RECOGNITION: a Or RT Facial Recognition – Art Or Science?
FACIAL RECOGNITION: A or FACIALRT RECOGNITION: A or RT Facial Recognition – Art or Science? Both the public and law enforcement often misunderstand facial recognition technology. Hollywood would have you believe that with facial recognition technology, law enforcement can identify an individual from an image, while also accessing all of their personal information. The “Big Brother” narrative makes good television, but it vastly misrepresents how law enforcement agencies actually use facial recognition. Additionally, crime dramas like “CSI,” and its endless spinoffs, spin the narrative that law enforcement easily uses facial recognition Roger Rodriguez joined to generate matches. In reality, the facial recognition process Vigilant Solutions after requires a great deal of manual, human analysis and an image of serving over 20 years a certain quality to make a possible match. To date, the quality with the NYPD, where he threshold for images has been hard to reach and has often spearheaded the NYPD’s first frustrated law enforcement looking to generate effective leads. dedicated facial recognition unit. The unit has conducted Think of facial recognition as the 21st-century evolution of the more than 8,500 facial sketch artist. It holds the promise to be much more accurate, recognition investigations, but in the end it is still just the source of a lead that needs to be with over 3,000 possible matches and approximately verified and followed up by intelligent police work. 2,000 arrests.

Image segmentation is one of the most important precursors for image processing–based applications and has a crucial impact on the overall performance of the developed systems. Robust segmentation has been the subject of research for many years, but till now published work indicates that most of the developed image segmentation algorithms have been designed in conjunction with particular applications. The aim of the segmentation process consists of dividing the input image into several disjoint regions with similar characteristics such as colour and texture.

Image Analysis for Face Recognition
Image Analysis for Face Recognition Xiaoguang Lu Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI, 48824 Email: [email protected] Abstract In recent years face recognition has received substantial attention from both research com- munities and the market, but still remained very challenging in real applications. A lot of face recognition algorithms, along with their modifications, have been developed during the past decades. A number of typical algorithms are presented, being categorized into appearance- based and model-based schemes. For appearance-based methods, three linear subspace analysis schemes are presented, and several non-linear manifold analysis approaches for face recognition are briefly described. The model-based approaches are introduced, including Elastic Bunch Graph matching, Active Appearance Model and 3D Morphable Model methods. A number of face databases available in the public domain and several published performance evaluation results are digested. Future research directions based on the current recognition results are pointed out. 1 Introduction In recent years face recognition has received substantial attention from researchers in biometrics, pattern recognition, and computer vision communities [1][2][3][4]. The machine learning and com- puter graphics communities are also increasingly involved in face recognition. This common interest among researchers working in diverse fields is motivated by our remarkable ability to recognize peo- ple and the fact that human activity is a primary concern both in everyday life and in cyberspace. Besides, there are a large number of commercial, security, and forensic applications requiring the use of face recognition technologies. These applications include automated crowd surveillance, ac- cess control, mugshot identification (e.g., for issuing driver licenses), face reconstruction, design of human computer interface (HCI), multimedia communication (e.g., generation of synthetic faces), 1 and content-based image database management. -

Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Time is an essential resource for everyone wants to save in their life. The development of technology inventions made this possible up to certain limit. Due to life style changes people are purchasing most of their needs on a single shop called super market. As the purchasing item numbers are huge, it consumes lot of time for billing process. The existing billing systems made with bar code reading were able to read the details of certain manufacturing items only. The vegetables and fruits are not coming with a bar code most of the time. Sometimes the seller has to weight the items for fixing barcode before the billing process or the biller has to type the item name manually for billing process. This makes the work double and consumes lot of time. The proposed artificial intelligence based image classification system identifies the vegetables and fruits by seeing through a camera for fast billing process. The proposed system is validated with its accuracy over the existing classifiers Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Random Forest (RF) and Discriminant Analysis (DA). Keywords: Fruit image classification, Automatic billing system, Image classifiers, Computer vision recognition. 1. Introduction Artificial intelligences are given to a machine to work on its task independently without need of any manual guidance. -
Face Recognition on a Smart Image Sensor Using Local Gradients

Soto 1, Payman Zarkesh-Ha 2 and Miguel Figueroa 1,* 1 Department of Electrical Engineering, Universidad de Concepción, Concepción 4070386, Chile; [email protected] (W.V.); [email protected] (J.E.S.) 2 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131-1070, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: miguel.fi[email protected] Abstract: In this paper, we present the architecture of a smart imaging sensor (SIS) for face recognition, based on a custom-design smart pixel capable of computing local spatial gradients in the analog domain, and a digital coprocessor that performs image classification. The SIS uses spatial gradients to compute a lightweight version of local binary patterns (LBP), which we term ringed LBP (RLBP). Our face recognition method, which is based on Ahonen’s algorithm, operates in three stages: (1) it extracts local image features using RLBP, (2) it computes a feature vector using RLBP histograms, (3) it projects the vector onto a subspace that maximizes class separation and classifies the image using a nearest neighbor criterion. We designed the smart pixel using the TSMC 0.35 µm mixed- signal CMOS process, and evaluated its performance using postlayout parasitic extraction. We also designed and implemented the digital coprocessor on a Xilinx XC7Z020 field-programmable gate array. The smart pixel achieves a fill factor of 34% on the 0.35 µm process and 76% on a 0.18 µm process with 32 µm × 32 µm pixels. The pixel array operates at up to 556 frames per second. -
