Abstract
Kinship verification from face images is a novel and formidable challenge in the realms of pattern recognition and computer vision. This work makes notable contributions by incorporating a preprocessing technique known as Multiscale Retinex (MSR), which enhances image quality. Our approach harnesses the strength of complementary deep (VGG16) and shallow texture descriptors (BSIF) by combining them at the score level using Logistic Regression (LR) technique. We assess the effectiveness of our approach by conducting comprehensive experiments on three challenging kinship datasets: Cornell Kin Face, UB Kin Face and TS Kin Face
