| Abstract(in English) | In case of identifying a person using face image recognition by computers, changes of hairstyles, clothes and scenery affects correctness of the result. Segmentation of face area is necessary to avoid this influence. The segmentation is based on positions of face elements such as eyes, nose and mouth. Generally, as shape of these face elements changes variously, it is hard to detect them by conventional template matching in image space. This paper proposes a flexible pattern matching method that measures distance in feature space rather than in image space. The method is based on discriminant analysis and uses local autocorrelation features extended to deal with color images. A method of segmentation of face area is shown as well. We performed some experiments confirming validity of the method. One is to detect some parts of the face elements as partial features. Another is segmentation. And then we performed other two experiments of recognition using original images and the detected rectangle area images, and we compared the recognition rates. |
