The FERET verification testing protocol for face recognition algorithms

Abstract
Two critical performance characterizations of biometric algorithms, including face recognition, are identification and verification. Identification performance of face recognition algorithms on the FERET tests has been previously reported. We report on verification performance obtained from the Sept96 FERET test. The databases used to develop and test algorithms are usually smaller than the databases that will be encountered in applications. We examine the effects of size of the database on performance for both identification and verification.
