  1. Face Sketch Recognition [Tang04] IEEE Trans. CSVT, Jan 2004

  2. Problem Statement • Goal: • Match face images to face sketches • Useful when test faces are in sketch forms (e.g. no photo of suspect). • Approach • Transform face images to sketches • Match sketches of faces using an eigen-sketch approach (C) 2005 by Yu Hen Hu

  3. Geometric Methods • Fiducial grid model • Identify anchor points tip of noise, corners of mouth • Derive other fiducial points from the identified anchor point • Geometric features • 35 fiducial points used • 26 distances between key fiducial points measured. • Including sizes of nose, eyes, eyebrows, face contours, etc. • Measure geometric features from both face image and sketches and perform matching (C) 2005 by Yu Hen Hu

  4. Eigen-Sketch Method • Convert face image into eigenface representation. • Generate eigen-sketch from each eigenface. • Project probe sketches (test sketches) onto the subspace spanned by eigen-sketches. • Use feature vectors of eigen-face representation to match the weight vectors • Assumption: • Face images and sketches are normalized in size, lighting, poses, and expression neutral • No occlusions on test images (eye glasses, beard, etc.) (C) 2005 by Yu Hen Hu

  5. Photo-to-sketch transformation Photo – eigen-face – eigen-sketch - sketch Photo-to-sketch transformation examples. (a) Original photo. (b) Reconstructed photo. (c) Reconstructed sketch. (d) Original sketch. (C) 2005 by Yu Hen Hu

  6. Results • Using Feret test set, the proposed method (sketch transform) out-performs conventional method (geometric and eigen-face) by large margin. • Possible reason: • Geometric face: features measured on photo may be different from sketches • Eigenface: gray scale image value differ very much between phton and sketch. (C) 2005 by Yu Hen Hu
