Outline
• Introduction• Image Formation• Early vision• Cognition in psychology• Face recognition (I)
Paper discussion (1)
• Recognition by Components:– Segmentation: blocks, cylinders, wedges, cones– Curvature, collinearity, symmetry, parallel– Contour, surface, texture– Occlusion– Top-down or bottom-up?– Relation: pairwise?

Paper discussion (2)
• Face Recognition– extremely low-resolution images (Yang and Ma)– Occlusion (sparse)– Component vs hollistic– Context! – Facial expression (Cohn)– Illumination (Basri and Jacobs)– Specialized (Martinez)
Image Formation
• Geometry– image plane– projection
• Physics of light– Brightness / Illumination– Light source– Lambertian
• scattered such that the apparent brightness of the surface to an observer is the same regardless of the observer's angle of view (wiki)

Lighting

Early Vision
• Early year of computer vision– David Marr (Psychologist, MIT)– Azriel Rosenfeld (Mathematician, Maryland)– Takeo Kanade (Engineer, CMU)
• Visual path– How early?– Recognition?– Saliency / gist

Template Matching
• Find transformation to align two images• cost function• Example: Chamfer Matching
• Example 2: Hough transform• Example 3: Probabilistic voting

Deformable
• Shape matching– Shape Context
• Snake– Active Contour, Active Appearance
• Articulated objects– Scissor– Human body
Face Recognition
• Linear subspaces– PCA and LDA– Eigenfaces vs Fisherfaces
