In the field of iris-based recognition, evaluation of quality of images has a number of important applications. These include image acquisition, enhancement, and data fusion. Iris image quality metrics designed for these applications are used as figures of merit to quantify degradations or improvements in iris images due to various image processing operations. This paper elaborates on the factors and introduces new global and local factors that can be used to evaluate iris video and image quality. The main contributions of the paper are as follows. (1) A fast global quality evaluation procedure for selecting the best frames from a video or an image sequence is introduced. (2) A number of new local quality measures for the iris biometrics are introduced. The performance of the individual quality measures is carefully analyzed. Since performance of iris recognition systems is evaluated in terms of the distributions of matching scores and recognition probability of error, from a good iris image quality metric it is also expected that its performance is linked to the recognition performance of the biometric recognition system.

In the field of biometrics evaluation of quality of biometric samples has a number of important applications. The main applications include (1) to reject poor quality images during acquisition, (2) to use as enhancement metric, and (3) to apply as a weighting factor in fusion schemes. Since a biometric-based recognition system relies on measures of performance such as matching scores and recognition probability of error, it becomes intuitive that the metrics evaluating biometric sample quality have to be linked to the recognition performance of the system. The goal of this work is to design a method for evaluating and ranking various quality metrics applied to biometric images or signals based on their ability to predict recognition performance of a biometric recognition system. The proposed method involves: (1) Preprocessing algorithm operating on pairs of quality scores and generating relative scores, (2) Adaptive multivariate mapping relating quality scores and measures of recognition performance and (3) Ranking algorithm that selects the best combinations of quality measures. The performance of the method is demonstrated on face and iris biometric data.

This paper describes a system for automatically extracting meta-information on people from videos on the web. The system contains multiple modules which automatically track people, including both faces and bodies, and clusters the people into distinct groups. We present new technology and significantly modify existing algorithms for body-detection, shot-detection and grouping, tracking, and track-clustering within our system. The system was designed to work effectivity on web content, and thus exhibits robust tracking and clustering behavior over a broad spectrum of professional and semi-professional video content. In order to quantify and evaluate our system we created a large ground-truth data-set of people within video. Finally, we provide actual video examples of our algorithm and find that the results are quite strong over a broad range of content.

Dominance is referred to the level of influence a person has in a conversation. Dominance is an important research area in social psychology, but the problem of its automatic estimation is a very recent topic in the contexts of social and wearable computing. In this paper, we focus on dominance detection from visual cues. We estimate the correlation among observers by categorizing the dominant people in a set of face-to-face conversations. Different dominance indicators from gestural communication are defined, manually annotated, and compared to the observers opinion. Moreover, the considered indicators are automatically extracted from video sequences and learnt by using binary classifiers. Results from the three analysis shows a high correlation and allows the categorization of dominant people in public discussion video sequences.
