Abstract
Face recognition systems, trained in controlled environment, often fail to efficiently match low resolution images with high resolution images. In this research, a co-transfer learning framework is proposed in which knowledge learnt in controlled high resolution environment is transferred for matching low resolution probe images with high resolution gallery. The proposed framework seamlessly combines transfer learning and co-training to perform knowledge transfer by updating classifier's decision boundary with low resolution probe instances. Experiments are performed on the CMU-Multi-PIE and SCface database with gallery images of size 72 × 72 and size of probe images varying from 48 × 48 to 16 × 16. The results show that, in terms of rank-1 identification accuracy, the proposed algorithm outperforms existing approaches by at least 5%. © 2012 IEEE.
