Abstract
Face recognition from two-dimensional (2D) still images and videos is quite successful even with “in the wild” conditions. Instead, less consolidated results are available for the cases in which face data come from non-conventional cameras, such as infrared or depth. In this article, we investigate this latter scenario assuming that a low-resolution depth camera is used to perform face recognition in an uncooperative context. To this end, we propose, first, to automatically select a set of frames from the depth sequence of the camera because they provide a good view of the face in terms of pose and distance. Then, we design a progressive refinement approach to reconstruct a higher-resolution model from the selected low-resolution frames. This process accounts for the anisotropic error of the existing points in the current 3D model and the points in a newly acquired frame so that the refinement step can progressively adjust the point positions in the model using a Kalman-like estimation. The quality of the reconstructed model is evaluated by considering the error between the reconstructed models and their corresponding high-resolution scans used as ground truth. In addition, we performed face recognition using the reconstructed models as probes against a gallery of reconstructed models and a gallery with high-resolution scans. The obtained results confirm the possibility to effectively use the reconstructed models for the face recognition task.
