Description:
Face images captured by surveillance videos usually have limited resolution. Due to resolution mismatch, it is hard to match high-resolution (HR) faces with low-resolution (LR) faces directly. Recently, multidimensional scaling (MDS) has been employed to solve the problem. In this letter, we proposed a more discriminative MDS method to learn a mapping matrix, which projects the HR images and LR images to a common subspace. Our method is discriminative since both interclass distances and intraclass distances are taken into consideration. We add an interclass constraint to enlarge the distances of different subjects in the subspace to ensure discriminability. Besides, we consider not only the relationship of HR–LR images, but also the relationship of HR–HR images and LR–LR images in order to preserve local consistency. Experimental results on FERET, Multi-PIE, and SCface databases demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach.
