Abstract

The performance of face recognition systems can be dramatically degraded when the pose of the probe face is different from the gallery face. In this paper, we present a pose robust face recognition model, centered on modeling how face patches change in appearance as the viewpoint varies. We present a novel model based on two robust local appearance descriptors, Gabor wavelets and Local Binary Patterns (LBP). These two descriptors have been widely exploited for face recognition and different strategies for combining them have been investigated. However, to the best of our knowledge, all existing combination methods are designed for frontal face recognition. We introduce a local statistical framework for face recognition across pose variations, given only one frontal reference image. The method is evaluated on the Feret pose dataset and experimental results show that we achieve very high recognition rates over the wide range of pose variations presented in this challenging dataset.
