Title
Graph-Based Kinship Recognition
Abstract
Image-based kinship recognition is an important problem in the reconstruction and analysis of social networks. Prior studies on image-based kinship recognition have focused solely on pair wise kinship verification, i.e. on the question of whether or not two people are kin. Such approaches fail to exploit the fact that many real-world photographs contain several family members, for instance, the probability of two people being brothers increases when both people are recognized to have the same father. In this work, we propose a graph-based approach that incorporates facial similarities between all family members in a photograph in order to improve the performance of kinship recognition. In addition, we introduce a database of group photographs with kinship annotations.
