The proposed approach is specifically designed for complex recognition tasks, where highly nonlinear face variations are typically encountered. Such data variations are commonly induced by changes in the external illumination conditions, viewpoint changes or expression variations and represent quite a challenge even for state-of-the-art techniques, such as LD-PLDA. To overcome this problem, we propose here a patch-wise form of the LDPLDA technique (i.e., PLD-PLDA), which relies on local image patches rather than the entire image to make inferences about the identity of the input images. The basic idea here is to decompose the complex face recognition problem into simpler problems, for which the linear nature of the LD-PLDA technique may be better suited. By doing so, several similarity scores are derived from one facial image, which are combined at the final stage using a simple sum-rule fusion scheme to arrive at a single score that can be employed for identity inference. We evaluate the proposed technique on experiment 4 of the Face Recognition Grand Challenge (FRGCv2) database with highly promising results. |
