[Abstract]    
  Face detection/recognition is essential in video  surveillance applications. However, the performance of  current face detection and recognition schemes can be easily significantly degraded for difficult cases in  real-world video surveillance applications such as  detecting and recognizing low-resolution faces in the  wild, and recognizing faces with illumination variations, viewpoint changes, and facial expression  variations. In this lecture, I will show some methods and their results in addressing the difficult problems  in face recognition for real-world video surveillance  applications, including identity-preserving face hallucination, face augmentation and normalization. Our approaches are based on Siamese Generative Adversarial Networks (SiGANs) to achieve identity-preserving face hallucination and normalization. We incorporate the reconstruction error and identity label information in the loss function of SiGAN. By  iteratively optimizing the loss functions of the generator and discriminator of SiGAN, we cannot only  maximize the visual fidelity between the reconstructed faces and their ground-truths, but also ensure the                reconstructed information is useful for identity recognition. Experimental results on large-scale  public face datasets demonstrate the efficacy of the
proposed approaches.
