Definition

Video-based face recognition is a type of face recognition where the test data are videos rather than still images. Similar to traditional face recognition, approaches for video-based face recognition attempt to identify a person in a video (identification) or decide whether two subjects in two different videos have same identity (verification).

Background

In computer vision and biometrics, video-based face recognition has received significant amount of attention in recent years. It has a wide range of applications including visual surveillance, access control, video content analysis, etc. Large amounts of video data are becoming available everyday since millions of cameras have been installed in buildings, streets, and airports around the world and people are using billions of handheld devices that are capable of capturing videos.
