abstract = {Face recognition in uncontrolled environments remains an open problem that has not been satisfactorily solved by existing recognition techniques. In this paper, we tackle this problem using a variant of the recently proposed Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA). We show that simplified versions of the PLDA model, which are regularly used in the field of speaker recognition, rely on certain assumptions that not only result in a simpler PLDA model, but also reduce the computational load of the technique and - as indicated by our experimental assessments - improve recognition performance. Moreover, we show that, contrary to the general belief that PLDA-based methods produce well calibrated verification scores, score normalization techniques can still deliver significant performance gains, but only if non-parametric score normalization techniques are employed. Last but not least, we demonstrate the competitiveness of the simplified PLDA model for face recognition by comparing our results with the state-of-the-art results from the literature obtained on the second version of the large-scale Face Recognition Grand Challenge (FRGC) database.},
