Probabilistic Models for Inference about Identity
—Many face recognition algorithms use “distance-based” methods: Feature vectors are extracted from each face and distances in feature space are compared to determine matches....

Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis for Inferences About Identity
Many current face recognition algorithms perform badly when the lighting or pose of the probe and gallery images differ. In this paper we present a novel algorithm designed for th...

Logical Generative Models for Probabilistic Reasoning about Existence, Roles and Identity
In probabilistic reasoning, the problems of existence and identity are important to many different queries; for example, the probability that something that fits some description...

Latent Identity Variables: Biometric Matching Without Explicit Identity Estimation
Abstract. We present a new approach to biometrics that makes probabilistic inferences about matching without ever estimating an identity "template". The biometric data is...

Approximate inference for first-order probabilistic languages
A new, general approach is described for approximate inference in first-order probabilistic languages, using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques in the space of concrete po...
