Dynamic biometric identification from multiple views using the GLBP-TOP method

Biomed Mater Eng. 2014;24(6):2715-24. doi: 10.3233/BME-141089.

Abstract

To realize effective and rapid dynamic biometric identification with low computational complexity, a video-based facial texture program that extracts local binary patterns from three orthogonal planes in the frequency domain of the Gabor transform (GLBP-TOP) was proposed. Firstly, each normalized face was transformed by Gabor wavelet to get the enhanced Gabor magnitude map, and then the LBP-TOP operator was applied to the maps to extract video texture. Finally, weighted Chi square statistics based on the Fisher Criterion were used to realize the identification. The proposed algorithm was proved effective through the biometric experiments using the Honda/UCSD database, and was robust against changes of illumination and expressions.

Keywords: Biometric identification; LBP-TOP; fisher criterion; gabor filters.
