The Fall of One, the Rise of Many: A Survey on Multi-Biometric Fusion Methods
IEEE Access, 2017 Increasing operational and security demands changed biometrics by shifting the focus from single to multi-biometrics. Multi-biometrics are mandatory in the current context of large international biometric databases and to accommodate new emerging ...

Automatic clothes segmentation for soft biometrics [PDF]
2014 IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), 2014 During the last decade, researchers have verified that clothing can provide information for gender recognition. However, before extracting features, it is necessary to segment the clothing region. We introduce a new clothes segmentation method based on the application of the GrabCut technique over a trixel mesh, obtaining very promising results for a ...

Soft-Biometrics Estimation In the Era of Facial Masks.
, 2020 We analyze the use of images from face parts to estimate soft-biometrics indicators. Partial face occlusion is common in unconstrained scenarios, and it has become mainstream during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the use of masks. Here, we apply existing pre-trained CNN architectures, proposed in the context of the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition

Assessment of facial wrinkles as a soft biometrics [PDF]
2013 10th IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG), 2013 This paper presents results on the assessment of facial wrinkles as a soft biometrics. Recently, several micro features such as moles, scars, freckles, etc. have been used in addition to more common facial features for face recognition. The discriminative power of facial wrinkles has not been evaluated.

YinYang-Net: Complementing Face and Body Information for Wild Gender Recognition
IEEE Access, 2022 Soft biometrics inference in surveillance scenarios is a topic of interest for various applications, particularly in security-related areas. However, soft biometric analysis is not extensively reported in wild conditions. In particular, previous works on

On Semantic Soft-Biometric Labels [PDF]
, 2014 A new approach to soft biometrics aims to use human labelling as part of the process. This is consistent with analysis of surveillance video where people might be imaged at too low resolution or quality for conventional biometrics to be deployed. In this manner, people use anatomical descriptions of subjects to achieve recognition, rather than the ...

Multi-Modal Long-Term Person Re-Identification Using Physical Soft Bio-Metrics and Body Figure
Applied Sciences, 2022 Person re-identification is the task of recognizing a subject across different non-overlapping cameras across different views and times. Most state-of-the-art datasets and proposed solutions tend to address the problem of short-term re-identification ...

An Attack on Facial Soft-Biometric Privacy Enhancement
IEEE Transactions on Biometrics, Behavior, and Identity Science, 2022 In the recent past, different researchers have proposed privacy-enhancing face recognition systems designed to conceal soft-biometric attributes at feature level. These works have reported impressive results, but generally did not consider specific attacks in their analysis of privacy protection.

Human identification using facial comparative descriptions [PDF]
, 2013 Eyewitness descriptions are vital for many criminal investigations, although typically still require manual discovery of possible suspects. Soft biometrics introduce a possibility to automatically search databases based on biometric features obtained ...
