A near-infrared image based face recognition system

In this paper, we present a near infrared (NIR) image based face recognition system. Firstly, we describe a design of NIR image capture device which minimizes influence of environmental lighting on face images. Both face and facial feature localization and face recognition are performed using local...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we present a near infrared (NIR) image based face recognition system. Firstly, we describe a design of NIR image capture device which minimizes influence of environmental lighting on face images. Both face and facial feature localization and face recognition are performed using local features with AdaBoost learning. An evaluation in real-world user scenario shows that the system achieves excellent accuracy, speed and usability
