Our proposed framework, namely Cast2Face, is featured by: (i) we restrict the names to assign within the set of character names in the cast; (ii) for each character, by using the corresponding actor's name as a key word, we retrieve from Google image search a group of face images to form the gallery set; and (iii) the probe face tracks in the movie are then identified as one of the actors by robust multi-task joint sparse representation and classification method. The assigned actor name on a face track is then mapped to the character name based on the cast again. In addition to face naming, we further apply the proposed method to spotlights summarization of a particular actor in his/her movies. Empirical evaluations on several feature-length movies demonstrate the satisfying performance of our method. © 2010 ACM. | Source Title: | MM'10 - Proceedings of the ACM Multimedia 2010 International Conference | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/69565 | ISBN: | 9781605589336 | DOI: | 10.1145/1873951.1874090 |
