Abstract

Illumination, occlusion, pose and expression variations are the most common challenging problems for face recognition in many real-world applications. However, existing face recognition methods are proposed to handle part of these variations. In this paper, we propose a robust facial descriptor to address this issue. First, we apply a chain of three processing to tackle the illumination variation. Second, we compute the facial sparse local descriptor to handle the occlusion, pose, and expression variations. Experimental evaluation on the FRGC database shows that our approach is able to achieve very promising recognition rates under uncontrolled environments.
