—Soft biometric traits embedded in a face (e.g., gender and facial marks) are ancillary information and are not fully distinctive by themselves in face-recognition tasks. However...
Using a novel data dimension reduction method proposed in statistics, we develop an appearance-based face recognition algorithm which is insensitive to large variation in lighting...

When attempting to code faces for modeling or recognition, estimates of dimensions are typically obtained from an ensemble. These tend to be significantly sub-optimal. Firstly, en...
