This study proposed a robust detection algorithm. It detects face more stably with respect to changes in light and rotation for the identification of a face shape. Also it satisfies both efficiency of calculation and the function of detection. The algorithm proposed segmented the face area through pre-processing using a face shape as input information in an environment with a single camera and then identified the shape using a Self Organized Feature Map(SOFM). However, as it is not easy to exactly recognize a face area which is sensitive to light, it has a large degree of freedom, and there is a large error bound, to enhance the identification rate, rotation information on the face shape was made into a database and then a principal component analysis was conducted. Also, as there were fewer calculations due to the fewer dimensions, the time for real-time identification could be decreased.

얼굴인식기술이 인증 및 보안을 위한 도구로 활용되고 있지만 입력영상의 상태 즉, 복잡한 배경과 조명환경에 따라 적용할 수 있는 범위가 제약적일 수밖에 없다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 제약을 최소화하기 위한 방법과 좀 더 정확한 얼굴 영역 검출을 위한 기법을 제시한다. 제안된 방법은 움직임에 기반 한 에지 차영상을 이용하여 얼굴 윤곽을 검출한 후 이를 X와 Y축의 프로파일을 이용하여 얼굴영역을 예측한다. 그리고 얼굴의 피부 색상 정보와 특징 구성요소인 눈, 코, 입 등의 특징적인 요소의 에지정보를 이용하여 수직적으로 이를 구분한 후 얼굴인지 아닌지를 판별한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 다양한 배경 및 조명등의 많은 환경적 요인에 따른 입력영상에서도 매우 안정적으로 적용됨을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

This paper proposed the real time face area detection using Wavelet transform and the strong detection algorithm that satisfies the efficiency of computation and detection performance at the same time was proposed. The detected face image recognizes the face by configuring the low-dimensional face symbol through the principal component analysis. The proposed method is well suited for real-time system construction because it doesn't require a lot of computation compared to the existing geometric feature-based method or appearance-based method and it can maintain high recognition rate using the minimum amount of information. In addition, in order to reduce the wrong recognition or recognition error occurred during face recognition, the input symbol of Hidden Markov Model is used by configuring the feature values projected to the unique space as a certain symbol through clustering algorithm. By doing so, any input face will be recognized as a face model that has the highest probability. As a result of experiment, when comparing the existing method Euclidean and Mahananobis, the proposed method showed superior recognition performance in incorrect matching or matching error.

최근 멀티미디어 기술의 급속한 발달로 인해 개인의 신원 확인, 보안 시스템 등의 영역에서 얼굴과 관련된 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있다. 기존의 연구에서는 원거리 추적이 어려우며, 연산시간, 잡음(noise), 배경과 조명등에 따라 추적 효율이 낮은 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 빠르고 정확한 얼굴 추적을 위한 차 영상 기법(differential image method)을 이용한 분할영역(segmentation region)에서 움직임(motion)과 피부색(skin color) 특성 기반의 객체분할추적(Tracking Of Object segmentation) 방법을 이용하였다. 객체분할추적은 얼굴을 하나의 객체(object)로 인식하고 제안한 방법으로 얼굴 부분만 분할하는 단계와 얼굴특징추출 단계를 적용하여 피부색 기반의 연구에서 나타난 입력영상(Current Frame)에서의 유동적인 피부색의 노출 대한 얼굴 추적 연구의 문제점을 해결했다. 시스템은 현재 컴퓨터에 일반적으로 사용되는 카메라를 이용하여 구현 하였고, 실시간(real-time) 영상에서 비교적 성공적인 얼굴 추적을 하였다[4].

A lot of lipreading system has been proposed to compensate the rate of speech recognition dropped in a noisy environment. Previous lipreading systems work on some specific conditions such as artificial lighting and predefined background color. In this paper, we propose a real-time lipreading system which allows the motion of a speaker and relaxes the restriction on the condition for color and lighting. The proposed system extracts face and lip region from input video sequence captured with a common PC camera and essential visual information in real-time. It recognizes utterance words by using the visual information in real-time. It uses the hue histogram model to extract face and lip region. It uses mean shift algorithm to track the face of a moving speaker. It uses PCA(Principal Component Analysis) to extract the visual information for learning and testing. Also, it uses HMM(Hidden Markov Model) as a recognition algorithm. The experimental results show that our system could get the recognition rate of 90% in case of speaker dependent lipreading and increase the rate of speech recognition up to 40～85% according to the noise level when it is combined with audio speech recognition.

The face shape extracted by the depth values has different appearance as the most important facial feature information and the face images decomposed into frequency subband are signified personal features in detail. In this paper, we develop a method for recognizing the range face images by combining the multiple frequency domains for each depth image and depth fusion using fuzzy integral. For the proposed approach, the first step tries to find the nose tip that has a protrusion shape on the face from the extracted face area. It is used as the reference point to normalize for orientated facial pose and extract multiple areas by the depth threshold values. In the second step, we adopt as features for the authentication problem the wavelet coefficient extracted from some wavelet subband to use feature information. The third step of approach concerns the application of eigenface and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) method to reduce the dimension and classify. In the last step, the aggregation of the individual classifiers using the fuzzy integral is explained for extracted coefficient at each resolution level. In the experimental results, using the depth threshold value 60 (DT60) show the highest recognition rate among the regions, and the depth fusion method achieves 98.6% recognition rate, incase of fuzzy integral.

This study proposed a more stable robust recognition algorithm which detects faces reliably even in cases where there are changes in lighting and angle of view, as well it satisfies efficiency in calculation and detection performance. The algorithm proposed detects the face area alone after normalization through pre-processing and obtains a feature vector using (PCA). Also, by applying the feature vector obtained for SVM, face areas can be tested. After the testing, the feature vector is applied to LDA and using Euclidean distance in the 2nd dimension, the final analysis and matching is performed. The algorithm proposed in this study could increase the stability and accuracy of recognition rates and as a large amount of calculation was not necessary due to the use of two dimensions, real-time recognition was possible.

Since the face has a unique property to identify human, the face recognition is actively used in a security area and an authentication area such as access control, criminal search, and CCTV. The frontal face image has the most face information. Therefore, it is necessary to acquire the front face image as much as possible for face recognition. In this study, the face region is detected using the Adaboost algorithm using Haar-like feature and tracks it using the mean-shifting algorithm. Then, the feature points of the facial elements such as the eyes and the mouth are extracted from the face region, and the ratio of the two eyes and degree of rotation of the face is calculated using their geographical information, and the approximate front face image is presented in real time.
