1 Face Recognition Using EigenFaces Presentation by: Zia Ahmed Shaikh (P/IT/2K15/07) Authors: Matthew A. Turk and Alex P. Pentland Vision and Modeling Group, The Media Laboratory Massachusetts Institute of Technology

2 Introduction Problem Statement : Given an image, to identify it as a face and/or extract face images from it. To retrieve the similar images (based on a heuristic) from the given database of face images.

3 Why face recognition ? Various potential applications, such as person identification. human-computer interaction. security systems.

4  Faces are complex, multidimensional and meaningful visual stimuli.  Face Recognition is difficult.  Face Images are similar in overall configuration. Difference From Image Recognition

5 Approach Similar to Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Similar to Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Neural Networks and Self Organizing Maps (SOMs). Neural Networks and Self Organizing Maps (SOMs). Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Principal Component Analysis (PCA).

6 Stages of Face Recognition (1) face location detection (2) feature extraction (3) facial image classification Approaches of Feature Extraction (1) local feature : eyes, nose, mouth information easily affected by irrelevant information. easily affected by irrelevant information. (2) global feature : extract feature from whole image. extract feature from whole image.

7 Face Recognition Using Eigenfaces

8  Face Images are projected into a feature space (“Face Space”) that best encodes the variation among known face images.  The face space is defined by the “eigenfaces”, which are the eigenvectors of the set of faces. Eigen Space and Eigen Faces

9  Initialization :  Acquire the training set and calculate eigenfaces (using PCA projections) which define eigenspace.  When a new face is encountered, calculate its weight.  Determine if the image is face.  If yes, classify the weight pattern as known or unknown.  (Learning) If the same unknown face is seen several times incorporate it into known faces. Steps In Face Recognition

10 PCA Main assumption of PCA approach: Face space forms a cluster in image space. PCA gives suitable representation.

11 Eigenfaces (1) Calculation of Eigenfaces (1) Calculate average face : v. (2) Collect difference between training images and average face in matrix A (M by N), where M is the number of pixels and N is the number of images. (3) The eigenvectors of covariance matrix C (M by M) give the eigenfaces. M is usually big, so this process would be time consuming. What to do?

12 Eigenfaces (2) Calculation of Eigenvectors of C If the number of data points is smaller than the dimension (N<M), then there will be only N-1 meaningful eigenvectors. Instead of directly calculating the eigenvectors of C, we can calculate the eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors of a much smaller matrix L (N by N). if λ i are the eigenvectors of L then A λ i are the eigenvectors for C. The eigenvectors are in the descent order of the corresponding eigenvalues.

13 Eigenfaces (3) Representation of Face Images using Eigenfaces The training face images and new face images can be represented as linear combination of the eigenfaces. When we have a face image u : Since the eigenvectors are orthogonal :

14 Eigenfaces (4) Experiment and Results Data used here are from the ORL database of faces. Facial images of 16 persons each with 10 views are used. - Training set contains 16×7 images. - Test set contains 16×3 images. First three eigenfaces :

15 Classification Using Nearest Neighbor Save average coefficients for each person. Classify new face as the person with the closest average. Recognition accuracy increases with number of Eigenfaces till 15. Later Eigenfaces do not help much with recognition. Best recognition rates Training set 99% Test set 89%
