ASSOCIATION AND PREDICTION IN FACIAL RECOGNITION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- under control of one or more processors configured with executable instructions,determining a first intrapersonal setting of at least a portion of a first image;
determining a second intrapersonal setting of at least a portion of a second image;
determining, based at least in part on a threshold, whether the first intrapersonal setting and the second intrapersonal setting are comparable; and
performing direct appearance matching between the first image and the second image when the first intrapersonal setting and the second intrapersonal setting are determined to be comparable.

Abstract
Some implementations provide techniques and arrangements to address intrapersonal variations encountered during facial recognition. For example, some implementations employ an identity data set having a plurality of images representing different intrapersonal settings. A predictive model may associate one or more input images with one or more images in the identity data set. Some implementations may use an appearance-prediction approach to compare two images by predicting an appearance of at least one of the images under an intrapersonal setting of the other image. Further, some implementations may utilize a likelihood-prediction approach for comparing images that generates a classifier for an input image based on an association of an input image with the identity data set.

11. Computer-readable media maintaining instructions executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving a first image and a second image for comparison; associating a facial component of the first image with a first identity of an identity data set, the identity data set including a plurality of identities, each identity including a plurality of images related to different intrapersonal settings; associating a facial component of the second image with a second identity of the identity data set; determining an intrapersonal setting for the facial component of the first image based on the first identity; determining an intrapersonal setting for the facial component of the second image based on the second identity; selecting, from the first identity, a particular image corresponding to the intrapersonal setting for the facial component of the second image; and comparing a facial component of the particular image from the first identity with the facial component of the second image to determine, at least in part, whether there is a match between the second image and the first image. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computing device comprising:
-
one or more processors in operable communication with computer-readable media; an identity data set stored on the computer-readable media, the identity data set including a plurality of identities, each identity including a plurality of images set in different intrapersonal settings; an association component maintained on the computer-readable media and executed on the one or more processors to associate at least a portion of a first image with a subset of identities in the identity data set; and a likelihood-prediction component maintained on the computer-readable media and executed on the one or more processors to; generate a classifier based on the association of at least the portion of the first image with the subset of identities; and feed at least a portion of a second image into the classifier to determine, at least in part, whether there is a match between the first image and the second image. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
