Comparison Results of Visual and Thermal face images Using FaceIt 4/02/03 Jingu Heo The department of Electrical & Computer Engineering The University of Tennessee, Knoxville
Ranks and Confidence Rates Ranks : the candidates that best match an unknown person presented to the database Confidence Rates : Shows how confident the results are ( 10 : Same Image) Equal Error Rate : 8 ( False Acceptance Rate= False Rejection Rate)
Confidence Rates – How 2 images are similar The performance of face recognition system can be varied by the choice of gallery and probe images.
Database from Equinox Co-registered Visual and Thermal images • Total DB ( 1,643*2 = 3,206) Eye Aligning • Video : Automatic • Thermal : Manaul
Visual and Thermal images withoutGlasses Probe 2 Probe 1 Gallery
Comparison Results (Ranks and Confidence Rate) Thermal images has higher confidence rates and converges within 10 matches.
Comparison Results(Ranks) – Glass on Visual : Glasses slight affect the performance Thermal : Glasses significantly affect the performance The confidence rate is lower than 7.0 : Cannot believe the results) Center of the glasses = center of eye positions?.
Visual and Thermal images with Glasses Low Confidence High Confidence
Automatic Eye detection in the thermal images Challenging problem -Even if we detect eyes, the performance will be poor with current FaceIt Algorithms • Co-registered Visual and Thermal images (Same Eye Coordinates) • Gallery : Without glass (Visual +Thermal) • Probe : Fusion based on Confidence Rate • Glasses on : Recognition using Visual • Glasses off : Recognition using Thermal or fused results • of visual and thermal confidence.
Future Works • Registration of Visual and Thermal image • Hardware only: Co-registration (Visual camera, thermal camera needed to be calibrated) – Needs precise registration. • Software only : Based on Head size (Fitting) • Eye Detection – Visual • Recognition – Fusion of Visual and Thermal • Only thermal image based face recognition • Using thermal signatures based on temperature. • Eye Detection : ? ( Face Detection will be easier) • Glasses on : Needs other features • Subject cooperation needed ( When enter facilities, subjects need to be taken off glasses -> Intrusive)
