LBPH-based enhanced real-time face recognition

Abstract

Facial recognition has always gone through a consistent research area due to its non-modelling nature and its diverse applications. As a result, day-to-day activities are increasingly being carried out electronically rather than in pencil and paper. Today, computer vision is a comprehensive field that deals with a high level of programming by feeding the input images/videos to automatically perform tasks such as detection, recognition and classification. Even with deep learning techniques, they are better than the normal human visual system. In this article, we developed a facial recognition system based on the Local Binary Pattern Histogram (LBPH) method to treat the real-time recognition of the human face in the low and high-level images. We aspire to maximize the variation that is relevant to facial expression and open edges so to sort of encode edges in a very cheap way. These highly successful features are called the Local Binary Pattern Histogram (LBPH).
