  1. Face Categorization using SIFT features Mei-Chen (Mei) Yeh ECE 281B 06/13/2006

  2. Bush vs Schwarzenegger

  3. Serena Williams vs Venus Williams

  4. Main goal • Face categorization problem • Object class recognition techniques have seen progress in recent years (ex: bag-of-words models) • Different people are considered different object classes • Integration of SIFT features • Does SIFT help face recognition? To what degree? • Target on a few people • Applications • Face annotation in family albums • Name-based photo search

  5. Method • Features: SIFT • Bag-of-words representation for faces • Each SIFT feature is considered a “codeword” • Build a dictionary based on training samples • Each face is represented as a histogram over codewords • Learning: Naïve Bayes Classifiers

  6. … frequency ….. codewords Vector quantization codeword 2 codeword 1 SIFT feature vectors from training samples codeword 3 128-d feature space

  7. Datasets • The BioID Face Database (simple) • 1521 images with 23 people • Variety of illumination, background and face size

  8. 22 categories, 1613 images 70% for training, 30% for testing

  9. Measurement • Confusion Matrix Classifiers Categories Average Categorization Rate

  14. Conclusions • SIFT features + bag-of-words representation might work for face recognition • Simple dataset: good • Challenging dataset: may be improved • Consider the spatial relations between features may be the next step to improve the performance
