Likelihood ratio based mixed resolution facial comparison In this paper, we propose a novel method for low-resolution face recognition. It is especially useful for a common situation in forensic search where faces of low resolution, e.g. on surveillance footage or in a crowd, must be compared to a high-resolution reference. This method is based on the likelihood ratio of a pair of mixed-resolution input images. The effectiveness of our method is tested on the SCface database which contains face images taken by surveillance cameras. The results show that our method outperforms recently published state-of-the-art.
