Developing a Novel Technique to Match Composite Sketches with Images Captured by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Police database cannot have images of first time offenders hence apprehending them becomes a difficult task. In this paper we propose a new method which matches composite sketches with images captured by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). The UAV is sent in the area where the offender is likely to be present. The human face, obtained by passing the captured image to Face Detection module, is subjected to Image Quality Assessment (IQA) calculating module. Based on the IQA values obtained we decide if the given face image contains Pose variations, Illumination variations, Age variation etc. Based on the variations, suitable feature extraction and classification method is selected.
