Abstract
Security systems have been one of the most challenging systems to secure assets and protect privacy over the past few years. Because of the increase in electronic transactions, the demand for rapid and precise identification and authentication is high. Face can be used as an identification and authentication tool. Face recognition possess many challenges like pose variation, blurriness, low resolution, illumination, facial expression, viewing angle and lighting conditions. Most of the work has been carried out to address the challenges in face recognition. Forensic face recognition is more challenging than normal face recognition because forensic images are of poor quality due to facial images captured under unfavorable circumstances. The forensic world is also becoming difficult and challenging because numerous crimes occur frequently and criminal investigators use face as a valuable and forensic tool.
