1 2017 CSE3/4VIS Visual Information Systems Assignment This assignment contributes 30% of your overall marks for students enrolled in CSE3VIS, and 20% of your overall marks for students enrolled in CSE4VIS. Please read this assignment sheet carefully before doing your jobs. Problem Summary : The assignment aims at consolidating your knowledge base and developing practical skills to build a face recognition system using eigenfaces. Your results will be as ked to present in two tables, which correspond to the combinations of cases with different image sizes (40x30 and 80x60) and different types of datasets (the training dataset and the test dataset). You need to investigate the effects of both the informatio n loss ratio used to determine the number of principal components and the parameter k used in k - NN classifiers. This is an INDIVIDUAL assignment and for both 3 rd and 4 th year students. You are NOT permitted to work as a group when completing this assig nment. The length of the assignment report is about 1200 words. Copying, Plagiarism: Plagiarism is the submission of somebody else’s work in a manner that gives the impression that the work is your own. The Department of Computer Science and Informatio n Technology at La Trobe University treats plagiarism very seriously. When it is detected, penalties are strictly imposed. • A penalty of 5% per day will be imposed on all late assignments up to 5 days. An assignment submitted more than five working days after the due date will NOT be accepted and zero mark will be assigned . • Students will not be granted an extension of the ass ignment deadline. Students are requested to submit an application for special consideration through Student Centre. In addition, students are advised to submit whatever incomplete work they have already done for the assignment. Where to Submit: (i) Yo ur assignment report (hardcopy) is to be submitted at a labelled box opposite to BG 139 lab . (ii) Your codes (zip them into a single file) should be electronically submitted through LMS. 2 Tasks Description (100 marks in total) This assignment is composed of the following 5 subtasks. You need to use ONLY selective 10 persons’ face images (including yourself ones) in your assignment. That is, selecting 10 (person)x3 (images from the given training dataset that we provide in LMS)=3 0 images to form your own training dataset to generate eigenfaces, and the remainders (another two images from the same selected persons) will be used as your own test dataset. Please note that the mentioned training and the test dataset below refer to th e training dataset and the test dataset that you generate by yourself, rather than the ones that we provided. • Resize images stored in the training dataset and the test dataset into 40x30, respectively for generating the eigenfaces and performance eval uation (see Table 1 and 2). Repeat this job with image resized as 80x60. [10 marks] • Determine K1 and K2 according to the following formulas: K 1 K 2 p p T K 1 pN 1 0.85 and T K 2 pN 1 0.95 p p p 1 p 1 where 1 2 N are the eigenvalues. Describe how do you generate K1 and K2 eigenfaces from the training datasets. Then, demonstrate the top 10 eigenfaces (corresponding to the top 10 eigenvales). [20 marks] • Using 1 - NN, 3 - NN and 5 - NN classifiers to recognise all images for the test datasets; Report the average recognition rate in the following tables: [40 marks] Table 1 Results for the test dataset (K1) Table 2. Results for the test dataset (K2) • Using your own 2 face images sized as 40x30 from the testing dataset that you built and the selected value of K1, please list 5 top ranked faces (based on Euclidean distances) from the training dataset with size as 40x30. So, in total you will have 10 faces to show. Please provide some analyse on the results. [20 marks] 1 - NN 3 - NN 5 - NN x 40 3 size 0 x 6 80 size 0 Average 1 - NN 3 - NN 5 - NN x 40 3 size 0 x 6 80 size 0 Average 3 • Based on your observations and data analysis on the results given in Table 1 - 2, please draw some conclusions and make comments on the eigenface technology for face recognition. [10 marks] Assessment Criteria (100 - 80 marks) - An excellent, well - written report and demonstrate good understandings on the eigen face techniques for face recognition. The developed system produces sensible results. You have analysed the performance of the system and drew some conclusions in an interesting and sound way. (79 - 60 marks) - A well - written report. You have produced a w orking system that produces good results. You have exhibited some initiative in the approach taken and the results are presented clearly. A sound analysis on the results is presented. (59 - 40 marks) - A reasonable report that demonstrate some understandi ngs on the eigenfaces techniques. The system performs reasonably well and the results are presented reasonably clearly. (39 - 20 marks) - A report that presents some results of a working system. Demonstrating some basic understandings on face recognition . (19 - 0 marks) - Either no report submitted or a report that shows little or no understanding on face recognition. 4 ~ End of Assignment Paper ~
