Family Photo Recognition via Multiple Instance Learning

Authors Info & Claims
Published:06 June 2017Publication History

ABSTRACT

Family photo recognition is an important task in social media analytics. Previous methods use singleton global features and conventional binary classifiers to distinguish family group photos from non-family ones. Different from them, we propose a novel family recognition approach with three dedicated local representations under Multiple Instance Learning framework, where geometry, kinship and semantic features are integrated to overcome issues in the previous work. Experimental results show that our method achieves the state-of-the-art result among global-feature models.
