Book Description

Face recognition is a complex and difficult problem that is important for surveillance and security, telecommunications, digital libraries, and human-computer intelligent interactions. The book is based on a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in 2008 at which leading researchers provided a broad overview on face recognition and identified trends for future developments and the means for implementing robust systems. The methods presented are synergetic efforts from the fields signal and image processing, pattern recognition, machine learning, neural networks, psychophysics, and system engineering. The emphasis is on tested methods such as principal component analysis, dynamic link architecture, support vector machines, and video processing.

The main idea and the driver of further research in the area of face recognition are security applications and human-computer interaction. Face recognition represents an intuitive and non-intrusive method of recognizing people and this is why it became one of three identification methods used in e-passports and a biometric of choice for many other security applications. This goal of this book is to provide the reader with the most up to date research performed in automatic face recognition. The chapters presented use innovative approaches to deal with a wide variety of unsolved issues.
