Unconstrained Face Recognition
This volume provides a comprehensive view of unconstrained face recognition, especially face recognition from multiple still images and/or video sequences, assembling a collection of novel approaches able to recognize human faces under various unconstrained situations. The underlying basis of these approaches is that, unlike conventional face recognition algorithms, they exploit the inherent characteristics of the unconstrained situation and thus improve the recognition performance when compared with conventional algorithms. Unconstrained Face Recognition is accessible to a wide audience with an elementary level of linear algebra, probability and statistics, and signal processing.

Speaker Classification II : Selected Papers
Constitutes a state-of-the-art survey for the field of speaker classification. It approaches the following questions: What characteristics of the speaker become manifest in his or her voice and speaking behavior? Which of them can be inferred from analyzing the acoustic realizations? What can this information be used for? Which methods are the most suitable for diversified problems in this area of research? How should the quality of the results be evaluated?

Smart watcher for students
Attendance is one of those administrative tasks that must be done at the start of each class. It can take up valuable time at the beginning of class and sometimes be difficult to manage. Even so detecting the activity for every student in the class is hard for teachers because they can’t remember every student in the classroom. We present a system that can take attendance and activity for student with a camera in every classrooms using face recognition and body pose estimation which will help saving time and make the process more efficient.
Robot seller
The 21st century is a century for robotics. This Project is a new possibilities for social interaction between a human user and a robot with an abstract shape. The social interaction takes place by simulating behaviors such as submissiveness and dominance and analyzing the corresponding human reactions. We used an object that has no resemblance with human features in its shape or expression mode, in order to exclude the effect of these features on the human behavior. AI algorithms made to present the Kiri Robot that interacts with the user in the form of a chatbot in English to give him suggestions about the laptop that serves his purpose through a discussion between the robot and the user based on a dataset of laptop specifications.

Raspberry pi based vehicle starters on face detection and voice commands: “Smart Vehicle”
As the number of thefts and identity fraud has become a serious issue and with the increase of accidents rate, and the need for smart and flexible dealing with the vehicle becomes necessary, the idea of this project is born. Which aspire to develop a security access control application based on face recognition algorithms and which receives voice commands from the user to fulfill certain requests. Also, ensure that the eyes remain open while driving to avoid accidents. In addition, it stores all feelings and person’s data in the event of an accident and detects the car’s location. This all is done in an embedded device known as Raspberry Pi. The project has four modules, face recognition module, speech recognition module, accidents and emotions detection and sleepiness detection module.
