New submissions to the thesis/dissertation collections are added automatically as they are received from the Graduate School. Currently, the Graduate School deposits all theses and dissertations from a given semester after the official graduation date. This means that there may be up to a 4 month delay in the appearance of a given thesis/dissertation in DRUM.

More information is available at Theses and Dissertations at University of Maryland Libraries.

    Partial Face Detection and Illumination Estimation
    (2018) Sarkar, Sayantan; Chellappa, Rama; Electrical Engineering; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    Face Analysis has long been a crucial component of many security applications. In this work, we shall propose and explore some face analysis algorithms which are applicable to two different security problems, namely Active Authentication and Image Tampering Detection. In the first section, we propose two algorithms, “Deep Feature based Face Detection for Mobile Devices” and “DeepSegFace” that are useful in detecting partial faces such as those seem in typical Active Authentication scenarios. In the second section, we propose an algorithm to detect discrepancies in illumination conditions given two face images, and use that as an indication to decide if an image has been tampered by transplanting faces. We also extend the illumination detection algorithm by proposing an adversarial data augmentation scheme. We show the efficacy of the proposed algorithms by evaluating them on multiple datasets.
