The Eigenfaces method described in [TP91]_ took a holistic approach to face recognition: A facial image is a point from a high-dimensional image space and a lower-dimensional representation is found, where classification becomes easy. The lower-dimensional subspace is found with Principal Component Analysis, which identifies the axes with maximum variance. While this kind of transformation is optimal from a reconstruction standpoint, it doesn't take any class labels into account. Imagine a situation where the variance is generated from external sources, let it be light. The axes with maximum variance do not necessarily contain any discriminative information at all, hence a classification becomes impossible. So a class-specific projection with a Linear Discriminant Analysis was applied to face recognition in [BHK97]_. The basic idea is to minimize the variance within a class, while maximizing the variance between the classes at the same time.

Recently various methods for a local feature extraction emerged. To avoid the high-dimensionality of the input data only local regions of an image are described, the extracted features are (hopefully) more robust against partial occlusion, illumation and small sample size. Algorithms used for a local feature extraction are Gabor Wavelets ([Wiskott97]_), Discrete Cosinus Transform ([Messer06]_) and Local Binary Patterns ([Ahonen04]_). It's still an open research question what's the best way to preserve spatial information when applying a local feature extraction, because spatial information is potentially useful information.

The focus of this database is set on extracting features that are robust to illumination, the images have almost no variation in emotion/occlusion/... . I personally think, that this dataset is too large for the experiments I perform in this document. You better use the `AT&T Facedatabase <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/dtg/attarchive/facedatabase.html>`_ for intial testing. A first version of the Yale Facedatabase B was used in [Belhumeur97]_ to see how the Eigenfaces and Fisherfaces method perform under heavy illumination changes. [Lee2005]_ used the same setup to take 16128 images of 28 people. The Extended Yale Facedatabase B is the merge of the two databases, which is now known as Extended Yalefacedatabase B.

Creating the CSV File

||||

|
||||
|
||||
You don't really want to create the CSV file by hand. I have prepared you a little Python script ``create_csv.py`` (you find it at ``/src/create_csv.py`` coming with this tutorial) that automatically creates you a CSV file. If you have your images in hierarchie like this (``/basepath/<subject>/<image.ext>``):
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none

||||

||||

Aligning Face Images
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
An accurate alignment of your image data is especially important in tasks like emotion detection, were you need as much detail as possible. Believe me... You don't want to do this by hand. So I've prepared you a tiny Python script. The code is really easy to use. To scale, rotate and crop the face image you just need to call *CropFace(image, eye_left, eye_right, offset_pct, dest_sz)*, where:
|
||||
|
||||
* *eye_left* is the position of the left eye
|
||||
* *eye_right* is the position of the right eye
|
||||
* *offset_pct* is the percent of the image you want to keep next to the eyes (horizontal, vertical direction)
|
||||
* *dest_sz* is the size of the output image
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using the same *offset_pct* and *dest_sz* for your images, they are all aligned at the eyes.
|
||||
|
||||
.. literalinclude:: ./src/crop_face.py
|
||||
:language: python
|
||||
:linenos:
|
||||
|
||||
Imagine we are given `this photo of Arnold Schwarzenegger <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Arnold_Schwarzenegger_edit%28ws%29.jpg>`_, which is under a Public Domain license. The (x,y)-position of the eyes is approximately *(252,364)* for the left and *(420,366)* for the right eye. Now you only need to define the horizontal offset, vertical offset and the size your scaled, rotated & cropped face should have.

||||

||||
