- The document proposes a video face recognition method using face detection, feature extraction with local binary patterns histograms (LBP), and k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) classification.
- An experiment was conducted on movie trailers from The Lord of the Rings films to evaluate the proposed method, comparing different face detectors, features, distance metrics, and values of k.
- The results showed that LBP features with a Chi-square distance metric and k=1 performed best, achieving a face recognition rate of 84.21% on 5 classes and 75.60% on 10 classes.
