Cross-pollination of normalisation techniques from speaker to face authentication using Gaussian mixture models

Sébastien Marcel

This paper applies score and feature normalization techniques to parts-based Gaussian mixture model (GMM) face authentication. In particular, we propose to utilize techniques that are well established in state-of-the-art speaker authentication, and apply t ...
