Recently regression analysis becomes a popular tool for face recognition. The existing regression methods all use the one-dimensional pixel-based error model, which characterizes the representation error pixel by pixel individually and thus neglects the whole structure of the error image. We observe that occlusion and illumination changes generally lead to a low-rank error image. To make use of this low-rank structural information, this paper presents a two-dimensional image matrix based error model, i.e. matrix regression, for face representation and classification. Our model uses the minimal nuclear norm of representation error image as a criterion, and the alternating direction method of multipliers method to calculate the regression coefficients. Compared with the current regression methods, the proposed Nuclear Norm based Matrix Regression (NMR) model is more robust for alleviating the effect of illumination, and more intuitive and powerful for removing the structural noise caused by occlusion. We experiment using four popular face image databases, the Extended Yale B database, the AR database, the Multi-PIE and the FRGC database. Experimental results demonstrate the performance advantage of NMR over the state-of-the-art regression based face recognition methods.
The existing face recognition datasets usually lack occlusion samples, which hinders the development of face recognition. Especially during the COVID-19 coronavirus epidemic, wearing a mask has become an effective means of preventing the virus spread
Despite recent advances in deep learning-based face frontalization methods, photo-realistic and illumination preserving frontal face synthesis is still challenging due to large pose and illumination discrepancy during training. We propose a novel Flo
With the recent success of deep neural networks, remarkable progress has been achieved on face recognition. However, collecting large-scale real-world training data for face recognition has turned out to be challenging, especially due to the label no
Rank minimization methods have attracted considerable interest in various areas, such as computer vision and machine learning. The most representative work is nuclear norm minimization (NNM), which can recover the matrix rank exactly under some restr
