One key challenge of facial trait recognition is the large non-rigid appearance variations due to some irrelevant real world factors, such as viewpoint and expression changes. In this paper, we explore how the shape information, i.e. facial landmark positions, can be explicitly deployed into the popular Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture to disentangle such irrelevant non-rigid appearance variations. First, instead of using fixed kernels, we propose a kernel adaptation method to dynamically determine the convolutional kernels according to the spatial distribution of facial landmarks, which helps learning more robust features. Second, motivated by the intuition that different local facial regions may demand different adaptation functions, we further propose a tree-structured convolutional architecture to hierarchically fuse multiple local adaptive CNN subnetworks. Comprehensive experiments on WebFace, Morph II and MultiPIE databases well validate the effectiveness of the proposed kernel adaptation method and tree-structured convolutional architecture for facial trait recognition tasks, including identity, age and gender recognition. For all the tasks, the proposed architecture consistently achieves the state-of-the-art performances.

In the paper, we propose a novel ordinal regression method called minimum class variance support vector ordinal regression(MCVSVOR). MCVSVOR is derived from minimum class variance support vector machine(MCVSVM) which is a variant of SVM, and so inherits the latter's characteristics such as taking the distribution of the categories into consideration and good generalization performance. Finally, the experimental results validate the effectiveness of MCVSVOR and indicate its superior generalization performance over SVOR.

In view of the draw backs of mango grade identification in China, which still relies on photoelectric sorting and manual separation, this paper presents a processing method on the basis of the technology of computer vision and digital image. Utilizing image processing technology, the researcher calculated the length of the long-short-axis, marked the location of it and calculated the 7 parameters, chroma, length, width and etc.,4 of which are chosen as the key characteristics of the BP input of network to build a network and identify the level of mango through analysis of the external characteristics of mango. The method is based on traditional characteristics detection, using boundary tracking algorithm and the length of the new long-short-axis detection algorithm. The result of experiment indicates that the calculating method and judging of the level of mango are precise and accurate, with an average recognition rate of 92%. Therefore, the method has a great practical value, which can be applied to other agricultural products classification.
