20100232657 | Automatic Face Recognition - Automatic face recognition. In a first example embodiment, a method for automatic face recognition includes several acts. First, a face pattern and two eye patterns are detected. Then, the face pattern is normalized. Next, the normalized face pattern is transformed into a normalized face feature vector of Gabor feature representations. Then, a difference image vector is calculated. Next, the difference image vector is projected to a lower-dimensional intra-subject subspace extracted from a pre-collected training face database. Then, a square function is applied to each component of the projection. Next, a weighted summation of the squared projection is calculated. Then, the previous four acts are repeated for each normalized gallery image feature vector. Finally, the face pattern in the probe digital image is classified as belonging to the gallery image with the highest calculated weighted summation where the highest calculated weighted summation is above a predefined threshold. | 09-16-2010 |
20110081079 | Automatic Red-Eye Object Classification In Digital Images Using A Boosting-Based Framework - Automatic red-eye object classification in digital images using a boosting-based framework. In a first example embodiment, a method for classifying a candidate red-eye object in a digital photographic image includes several acts. First, a candidate red-eye object in a digital photographic image is selected. Next, a search scale set and a search region for the candidate red-eye object where an eye object may reside is determined. Then, the number of subwindows that satisfy an AdaBoost classifier is determined. This number is denoted as a vote. Next, the maximum size of the subwindows that satisfy the AdaBoost classifier is determined. Then, a normalized threshold is calculated by multiplying a predetermined constant threshold by the calculated maximum size. Next, the vote is compared with the normalized threshold. Finally, the candidate red-eye object is transformed into a true red-eye object if the vote is greater than the normalized threshold. | 04-07-2011 |
20110194759 | Mouth Removal Method For Red-Eye Detection And Correction - An input image (e.g. a digital RGB color image) is subjected to an eye classifier that is targeted at discriminating a complete eye pattern from any non-eye patterns. The red-eye candidate list with associated bounding boxes that are generated by the red-eye classifier are received. The bounding rectangles are subjected to object segmentation. A connected component labeling procedure is then applied to obtain one or more red regions. The largest red region is then chosen for feature extraction. A number of features are then extracted from this region. Then these features are used to determine if the particular candidate red-eye object is a mouth. | 08-11-2011 |
