Facial Recognition Thermal Images
Facial recognition in the dark By Matt Leonard Apr 20, 2018 Facial recognition generally requires well-lit photos to make a match, but warfighters often need to identify individuals from images taken by thermal cameras in low-light or nighttime conditions. With the help of artificial intelligence, Scientists with the Army Research Lab have developed a way to enhance images from night-vision cameras so that they can be matched to conventional images in existing biometric face databases or watch lists. The approach creates a visible facial image that has been synthesized from multiple regions of a thermal image. By combining features from the across the entire face with those of specific regions -- like the eyes, nose and mouth – the researchers were able to synthesize a refined visible image that could be run against a face database Making a match between the visible and thermal image types required training a neural network to learn when the features from the two types of...
Scientific Discovery
"The path that leads to scientific discovery often begins when one of us takes an adventurous step into the world of endless possibilities. Scientists intrigued by a mere glimpse of a subtle variation may uncover a clue or link, and from that fragment emerges an idea that has to be developed and worked into shape." - Madan M. Gupta
