Abstract

Face recognition is becoming increasingly important in the contexts of computer vision, neuroscience, psychology, surveillance, credit card fraud detection, pattern recognition, neural network, content based video processing, assistive devices for visual impaired, etc. Face is a strong biometric trait for identification and hence criminals always try to hide their face by different artificial means such as plastic surgery, disguise and dummy. The availability of a comprehensive face database is crucial to test the performance of these face recognition algorithms. However, while existing publicly-available face databases contain face images with a wide variety of covariates such as poses, illumination, gestures and face occlusions but there is no dummy face database is available in public domain. The contributions of this paper are: i) Preparation of dummy face database of 50 subjects ii) Testing of face recognition algorithms on the dummy face database, iii) Critical analysis of four algorithms on dummy face database.
