A Massively Parallel Face Recognition System

Abstract:

We present methods for processing the LBPs (local binary patterns) with a
massively parallel hardware, especially with CNN-UM (cellular nonlinear
network-universal machine). In particular, we present a framework for
implementing a massively parallel face recognition system, including a
dedicated highly accurate algorithm suitable for various types of platforms
(e.g., CNN-UM and digital FPGA). We study in detail a dedicated mixed-mode
implementation of the algorithm and estimate its implementation cost in the
view of its performance and accuracy restrictions.
