Abstract

Deep learning has advanced progressively in the last years and now demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in various fields. In the era of big data, transformation of data into valuable knowledge has become one of the most important challenges in computing. Therefore, we will review multiple algorithms for face recognition that have been researched for a long time and are maturely developed, and analyze deep learning, presenting examples of current research.

To provide a useful and comprehensive perspective, in this paper we categorize research by deep learning architecture, including neural networks, convolutional neural networks, depthwise Separable Convolutions, densely connected convolutional networks, and present brief descriptions of each study. We consider that this research will provide valuable insights and serve as a starting point for other students to apply deep learning approaches in their computer engineering and computer science studies.
