F ace recognition

Participants : Jakob Verbeek [correspondant] , Guillaume Fortier.

In a collaboration with Technosens (a start-up based in Grenoble) we are developing an efficient face recognition library. During 18 months Guillaume Fortier, financed by INRIA's technology transfer program, streamlines code developed by different team members on various platforms. This encompasses detection of characteristic points on the face (eyes, nose, mouth), computing appearance features on these points, and learning metrics on the face descriptors that are useful for face verification (faces of the same person are close, faces of different people are far away). The code will be ported to run in real-time on the mini-pc system of Technosens that implements advanced user interfaces to TV-top videophone systems.
