Excerpt from The Feret Verification Testing Protocol for Face Recognition AlgorithmsFor systems to be successfully fielded, it is critical that their performance is known. To date the performance of most algorithms has only been reported on identification tasks, which implies that characterization on identification tasks holds for verification. For face recognition systems to successfully meet the demands of verification applications, it is necessary to develop testing and scoring procedures that specifically address these applications.A scoring procedure is one of two parts of an evaluation protocol. In the first part, an algorithm is executed on a test set of images and the output from executing the algorithm is written to a fi1e(s). This produces the raw results. In the second part, a scoring procedure processes raw results and produces performance statistics. If the evaluation protocol and its associated scoring procedure are properly designed, the performance statistics can be computed for both identification and verification scenarios.The Sep96 feret evaluation method is such a protocol it used images from the feret database of facial images The Sep96 feret test is the latest in a series of feret tests to measure the progress, assess the state-of-the-art, identify strengths and weakness of individual algorithms, and point out future directions of research in face recognition. Prior analysis of the feret results has concentrated on identification scenarios. In this paper we present (1) a verification analysis method for the Sep96 feret test, and (2) results for verification.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
