Under controlled environment, such as fixed viewpoints or consistent illumination, the performance of face recognition is usually high enough to be acceptable nowadays. Face recognition is, however, a still challenging task in real world. SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transformation) algorithm is scale and rotation invariant, which is powerful only in the case of small viewpoint changes. However, it often fails when viewpoint of faces changes in wide range. In this paper, we use Affine SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transformation; ASIFT) to detect affine invariant local descriptors for face recognition under wide viewpoint changes. The ASIFT is an extension of SIFT algorithm to solve this weakness. In our scheme, ASIFT is applied only to gallery face, while SIFT algorithm is applied to probe face. ASIFT generates a series of different viewpoints using affine transformation. Therefore, the ASIFT allows viewpoint differences between gallery face and probe face. Experiment results showed our framework achieved higher recognition accuracy than the original SIFT algorithm on FERET database.

In this paper, we find a condition of an open subset of the affine space which admits a cocompact affine action. To do it, the asymptotic flag of an open convex subset is introduced and some applications to affine manifolds are presented.

Image normalization is one of the important areas in pattern recognition. Also, log-polar images are useful in the sense that their image data size is reduced dramatically comparing with conventional images and it is possible to develop faster pattern recognition algorithms. Especially, the log-polar image is very similar with the structure of human eyes. However, there are almost no researches on pattern recognition using the log-polar images while a number of researches on visual tracking have been executed. We propose an image normalization technique of log-polar images using momentums applicable for affine-invariant pattern recognition. We handle basic distortions of an image including translation, rotation, scaling, and skew of a log-polar image. The algorithm is experimented in a PC-based real-time vision system successfully.

In this paper, we enlarge the ball of convergence of a uniparametric family of secant-like methods for solving non-differentiable operators equations in Banach spaces via using ${\omega}$-condition and centered-like ${\omega}$-condition meantime as well as some fine techniques such as the affine invariant form. Numerical examples are also provided.

In this paper, we consider a modified inexact Newton method for solving a nonlinear system F(x) = 0 where $F(x):R^n{\rightarrow}R^n$. The basic idea is to accelerate convergence. A semi-local convergence theorem for the modified inexact Newton method is established and an affine invariant version is also given. Moreover, we test three numerical examples which show that the modified inexact scheme is more efficient than the classical inexact Newton strategy.

A limitation is assumed that In this paper, a generalized method is proposed to extract a period of a motion of on object. To detect a periodic motion, we put restrictions on a stationary camera and on a motion of an object. We ca derive the necessary and sufficient condition that an image sequence consists of the projection of the periodic motion by the affine transformation that is a reasonally good approach to the perspective projection. The difficulty of detecting its periodic motion is to select its have period in sequence and to define its width.

Affine invariant sufficient conditions are given for two local convergence theorems involving inexact Newton-like methods. The first uses conditions on the first Frechet-derivative whereas the second theorem employs hypotheses on the second. Radius of con-vergence as well as rate of convergence results are derived. Results involving superlinear convergence and known to be true for inexact Newton methods are extended here. Moreover we show that under hypotheses on the second Frechet-derivation our radius of convergence results are derived. Results involving superlinear convergence and known to be true or inexact Newton methods are extended here. Moreover we show that under hypotheses on the second Frechet-derivative our radius of conver-gence is larger than the corresponding one in [10]. This allows a wider choice for the initial guess. A numerical example is also pro-vided to show that our radius of convergence is larger then the one in [10].

In this study we are concerned with the problem of ap-proximating a locally unique solution of an equation on a Banach space. A semilocal convergence theorem is given for the Super-Halley method in Banach spaces. Earlier results have shown that the order of convergence is four for a certain class of operators [4] [5] [8] These results were not given in affine invariant form and made use of a real quadratic majorizing polynomial. Here we provide our re-sults in affine invariant form showing that the order of convergence is at least four. In cases that it is exactly four the rate of convergence is improved. We achieve these results by using a cubic majorizing polynomial. Some numerical examples are given to show that our error bounds are better than earlier ones.
