Face Recognition from Video: a Review

Driven by key law enforcement and commercial applications, research on face recognition from video sources has intensified in recent years. The ensuing results have demonstrated that videos possess unique properties that allow both humans and automated systems to perform recognition accurately in difficult viewing conditions. However, significant research challenges remain as most video-based applications do not allow for controlled recordings. In this survey, we categorize the research in this area and present a broad and deep review of recently proposed methods for overcoming the difficulties encountered in unconstrained settings. We also draw connections between the ways in which humans and current algorithms recognize faces. An overview of the most popular and difficult publicly available face video databases is provided to complement these discussions. Finally, we cover key research challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for the field as a whole.
