Note publique d'information : The history of computer-aided face recognition dates to the 1960s, yet the problem
of automatic face recognition – a task that humans perform routinely and effortlessly
in our daily lives – still poses great challenges, especially in unconstrained conditions.
This highly anticipated new edition provides a comprehensive account of face recognition
research and technology, spanning the full range of topics needed for designing operational
recognition systems. After a thorough introduction, each subsequent chapter focuses
on a specific topic, reviewing background information, up-to-date techniques, and
recent results, as well as offering challenges and future directions. Topics and features:
Fully updated, revised, and expanded, covering the entire spectrum of concepts, methods,
and algorithms for automated detection and recognition systems Provides comprehensive
coverage of face detection, alignment, feature extraction, and recognition technologies,
and issues in evaluation, systems, security, and applications Contains numerous step-by-step
algorithms Describes a broad range of applications from person verification, surveillance,
and security, to entertainment Presents contributions from an international selection
of preeminent experts Integrates numerous supporting graphs, tables, charts, and performance
data This practical and authoritative reference is an essential resource for researchers,
professionals and students involved in image processing, computer vision, biometrics,
security, Internet, mobile devices, human-computer interface, E-services, computer
graphics and animation, and the computer game industry. Dr. Stan Z. Li is Chair Professor
