In this paper, we propose two novel methods for face recognition under arbitrary unknown lighting by using spherical harmonics illumination representation, which require only one t...
The variation of facial appearance due to the viewpoint (/pose) degrades face recognition systems considerably, which is well known as one of the bottlenecks in face recognition. ...
In many computer vision applications, such as face recognition and hand pose estimation, we need systems that can recognize a very large number of classes. Large margin classifica...
