Started a list of reproducible research papers authored by Manuel Günther's avatar Manuel Günther
In this page, we provide a list of Reproducible Research publications and other examples that build on top of Bob.
If you want your publication to be listed here, please [contact us](https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/bob-devel).
# Active Publications (using Bob v2)
These publications use the new Bob framework and should work out-of-the-box.
Please, [let us know](https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/bob-devel) in case you have trouble installing or executing any of the papers below.
## Face Recognition in Challenging Environments: A Reproducible Research Survey
We compare a list of face recognition algorithms' performances on different aspects of face recognition, such as facial expression, occlusion, pose and the availability of video data.
* [Publication](http://publications.idiap.ch/index.php/publications/show/3313)
* [Source code package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bob.chapter.FRICE)
* [Documentation](http://pythonhosted.org/bob.chapter.FRICE/index.html)
## Gender Classification by LUT based boosting of Overlapping Block Patterns
We perform gender classification using a boosted strong classifier build out of weak look-up-table based classifiers, which are build from overlapping multi-block LBP codes.
* [Publication](http://publications.idiap.ch/index.php/publications/show/3112)
* [Source code package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bob.paper.SCIA2015)
## Impact of Eye Detection Error on Face Recognition Performance
We test, how several face recognition algorithms perform, when the images are mis-aligned due to an imprecise eye localization.
* [Publication](http://publications.idiap.ch/index.php/publications/show/2981)
* [Source code package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xfacereclib.paper.IET2015)
# Older Publications (relying on Bob v1)
These publications rely on an older version of Bob, which need [Bob v1 to be installed](Old Releases).
## Score Calibration in Face Recognition
We perform score calibration, a technique adopted from the speaker recognition domain, to perform score calibration using face recognition scores.
* [Publication](http://publications.idiap.ch/index.php/publications/show/2822)
* [Source code package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xfacereclib.paper.IET2014)
## On the Improvements of Uni-modal and Bi-modal Fusions of Speaker and Face Recognition for Mobile Biometrics
We use score calibration techniques to fuse the recognition scores from several speaker and face recognition algorithms and show that the fusion outperforms each single algorithm by far.
* [Publication](http://publications.idiap.ch/index.php/publications/show/2688)
* [Source code package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xbob.paper.BTFS2013)
## An Open Source Framework for Standardized Comparisons of Face Recognition Algorithms
We introduce the FaceRecLib (which in Bob v2 is split into the bob.bio packages), a tool to provide a fair comparison of face recognition algorithms.
