How Does Bilateral Ear Symmetry Affect Deep Ear Features?
Kagan Ozturk, Deeksha Arun, Kevin W. Bowyer +1
Ear recognition has gained attention as a reliable biometric technique due to the distinctive characteristics of human ears. With the increasing availability of large-scale dataset…
Improved Ear Verification with Vision Transformers and Overlapping Patches
Deeksha Arun, Kagan Ozturk, Kevin W. Bowyer +1
Ear recognition has emerged as a promising biometric modality due to the relative stability in appearance during adulthood. Although Vision Transformers (ViTs) have been widely use…
Can the accuracy bias by facial hairstyle be reduced through balancing the training data?
Kagan Ozturk, Haiyu Wu, Kevin W. Bowyer
Appearance of a face can be greatly altered by growing a beard and mustache. The facial hairstyles in a pair of images can cause marked changes to the impostor distribution and the…
Identity Overlap Between Face Recognition Train/Test Data: Causing Optimistic Bias in Accuracy Measurement
Haiyu Wu, Sicong Tian, Jacob Gutierrez +3
A fundamental tenet of pattern recognition is that overlap between training and testing sets causes an optimistic accuracy estimate. Deep CNNs for face recognition are trained for…
