Trade-off Between Spatial and Angular Resolution in Facial Recognition

Ensuring robustness in face recognition systems across various challenging conditions is crucial for their versatility. State-of-the-art methods often incorporate additional information, such as depth, thermal, or angular data, to enhance performance. However, light field-based face recognition approaches that leverage angular information face computational limitations. This paper investigates the fundamental trade-off between spatio-angular resolution in light field representation to achieve improved face recognition performance. By utilizing macro-pixels with varying angular resolutions while maintaining the overall image size, we aim to quantify …
