Popis: Over the years, significant research has been undertaken to improve the performance of face recognition in the presence of covariates such as variations in pose, illumination, expressions, aging, and use of disguises. This paper highlights the effect of illicit drug abuse on facial features. An Illicit Drug Abuse Face (IDAF) database of 105 subjects has been created to study the performance on two commercial face recognition systems and popular face recognition algorithms. The experimental results show the decreased performance of current face recognition algorithms on drug abuse face images. This paper also proposes projective Dictionary learning based illicit Drug Abuse face Classification (DDAC) framework to effectively detect and separate faces affected by drug abuse from normal faces. This important pre-processing step stimulates researchers to develop a new class of face recognition algorithms specifically designed to improve the face recognition performance on faces affected by drug abuse. The highest classification accuracy of 88.81% is observed to detect such faces by the proposed DDAC framework on a combined database of illicit drug abuse and regular faces.
