Does All Newborn Face Lookalike to Human and Machine?

Abstract

In this paper we present human recognition capability for newborn face, machine recognition capability for newborn face, comparison and analysis of human recognition with machine and propose automatic algorithms which are closer to human visual cortex and brain to improve face verification accuracy. The analysis demonstrates that neither humans nor machines are efficient in recognising newborn that lookalike, however, the recognition capability of machine is better than that of human. © 2015, The National Academy of Sciences, India.
