Using a small number of training instances in genetic programming for face image classification

扫码查看
Classifying faces is a difficult task due to image variations in illumination, occlusion, pose, expression, etc. Typically, it is challenging to build a generalised classifier when the training data is small, which can result in poor generalisation. This paper proposes a new approach for the classification of face images based on multi-objective genetic programming (MOGP). In MOGP, image descriptors that extract effective features are automatically evolved by optimising two different objectives at the same time: the accuracy and the distance measure. The distance measure is a new measure intended to enhance generalisation of learned features and/or classifiers. The performance of MOGP is evaluated on eight face datasets. The results show that MOGP significantly outperforms 17 competitive methods. (C) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
