| Summary: | This project aims to reduce the effect of critical conditions such as excessive illumination, facial
expressions, hairstyles, beard and moustache which have affected the performance of face recognition since ages ago.
The main contributions of this project are the automatic algorithms for mouth detection, facial features cropping and
face classification. First, the algorithm will detect a human face and irises. Second, the mouth region is estimated by
using geometric calculation based on the irises positions. A proposed algorithm which combines RGB color map and
corner detection techniques will detect the mouth corners. Then, the proposed features cropping system will crop the
detected iris and mouth automatically. These features are fed into the backpropagation neural network. The proposed
architecture contains two neural networks. The second network merges the results from template matching and first
neural network to reduce wrong recognition rate and improve the performance of neural network. The proposed
automatic feature-based face recognition system has efficiency more than 95% under the stated critical conditions.
All the experiment results are studied to prove the quality and uniqueness of this research. |
