Hexagonal scale invariant feature transform (H-SIFT) for facial feature extraction

Feature transformation and key-point identification is the solution to many local feature descriptors. One among such descriptor is the Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). A small effort has been made for designing a hexagonal sampled SIFT feature descriptor with its applicability in face reco...
