A Powerful Face Preprocessing For Robust Kinship Verification based Tensor Analyses (2312.11290v1)

Abstract: Kinship verification using facial photographs captured in the wild is difficult area of research in the science of computer vision. It might be used for a variety of applications, including image annotation and searching for missing children, etc. The largest challenge to kinship verification in practice is the fact that parent and child photos frequently differ significantly from one another. How to effectively respond to such a challenge is important improving the efficiency of kinship verification. For this purpose, we introduce a system to check relatedness that starts with a pair of face images of a child and a parent, after which it is revealed whether two people are related or not. The first step in our approach is face preprocessing with two methods, a Retinex filter and an ellipse mask, then a feature extraction step based on hist-Gabor wavelets, which is used before an efficient dimensionality reduction method called TXQDA. Finally, determine if there is a relationship. By using Cornell KinFace benchmark database, we ran a number of tests to show the efficacy of our strategy. Our findings show that, in comparison to other strategies currently in use, our system is robust.
