본 논문은 EBGM(Elastic Bunch Graph Matching)기법을 이용한 얼굴인식에 대해 다룬다. 대용량 영상 정보에 대해 차원 축소를 이용한 얼굴인식 기법인 주성분기법이나 선형판별기법에서는 얼굴 영상 전체의 정보를 이용하는 반면 본 논문에서는 얼굴의 눈, 코, 입 등과 같은 얼굴 특징점에 대해 주파수와 방향각이 다른 여러 개의 가버 커널과 영상 이미지의 컨볼루션(Convolution)의 계수의 집합(Jets)을 이용한 특징 데이터를 이용한다. 하나의 얼굴 영상에 대해서는 모든 영상이 같은 크기의 특징 데이터로 표현되는 Face Graph가 생성되며, 얼굴인식 과정에서는 추출된 제트의 집합에 대해서 상호 유사도(Similarity)의 크기를 비교하여 얼굴인식을 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 EBGM방법의 Face Graph 생성 과정을 보다 간략화 한 방법을 이용하여 얼굴인식 과정에서 계산량을 줄여 속도를 개선하였다.

The facial recognition algorithms using Gabor wavelet based face graph produce very good performance while they have some weakness such as a large amount of computation and an irregular result depend on initial location. We proposed a fully automatic facial recognition algorithm using a Gabor feature based geometric deformable face graph matching. The initial location and size of a face graph can be selected using Adaboost detection results for speed-up. To find the best face graph with the face model graph by updating the size and location of the graph, the geometric transformable parameters are defined. The best parameters for an optimal face graph are derived using an optimization technique. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can produce very good performance with recognition rate 96.7% and recognition speed 0.26 sec for FERET database.

In this paper we describe a face recognition using EBGM(Elastic Bunch Graph Matching) method. Usally, the PCA and LDA based face recognition method with the low-dimensional subspace representation use holistic image of faces, but this study uses local features such as a set of convolution coefficients for Gabor kernels of different orientations and frequencies at fiducial points including the eyes, nose and mouth. At pre-recognition step, all images are represented with same size face graphs and they are used to recognize a face comparing with each similarity for all images. The proposed algorithm has less computation time due to simplified face graph than conventional EBGM method and the fuzzy matching method for calculating the similarity of face graphs renders more face recognition results.
