Abstract

Recent studies have shown that facial cosmetics have an impact on face recognition. To develop a face recognition system that is robust to facial makeup, we propose performing correlation mapping between makeup and nonmakeup faces on features extracted from local patches. Three methods are explored to learn the correlations. We also study the problem of makeup detection. Four categories of features are proposed to characterize cosmetics, including skin color tone, skin smoothness, texture, and highlight. A patch selection scheme and discriminative mapping are presented to enhance the performance of makeup detection. A complete system is then developed for face verification utilizing the makeup detection result. Experimental results show that our system is robust to cosmetics in face authentication. An accuracy of about 80.0% can be achieved on a database of about 500 pairs of makeup and nonmakeup face images.
