2D Face Recognition System Based on Selected Gabor Filters and Linear Discriminant Analysis LDA
We present a new approach for face recognition system. The method is based on
2D face image features using subset of non-correlated and Orthogonal Gabor
Filters instead of using the whole Gabor Filter Bank, then compressing the
output feature vector using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). The face image
has been enhanced using multi stage image processing technique to normalize it
and compensate for illumination variation. Experimental results show that the
proposed system is effective for both dimension reduction and good recognition
performance when compared to the complete Gabor filter bank. The system has
been tested using CASIA, ORL and Cropped YaleB 2D face images Databases and
achieved average recognition rate of 98.9 %
A Novel Approach to Face Recognition using Image Segmentation based on SPCA-KNN Method
In this paper we propose a novel method for face recognition using hybrid SPCA-KNN (SIFT-PCA-KNN) approach. The proposed method consists of three parts. The first part is based on preprocessing face images using Graph Based algorithm and SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) descriptor. Graph Based topology is used for matching two face images. In the second part eigen values and eigen vectors are extracted from each input face images. The goal is to extract the important information from the face data, to represent it as a set of new orthogonal variables called principal components. In the final part a nearest neighbor classifier is designed for classifying the face images based on the SPCA-KNN algorithm. The algorithm has been tested on 100 different subjects (15 images for each class). The experimental result shows that the proposed method has a positive effect on overall face recognition performance and outperforms other examined methods
Optimizing Face Recognition Using PCA
Principle Component Analysis PCA is a classical feature extraction and data
representation technique widely used in pattern recognition. It is one of the
most successful techniques in face recognition. But it has drawback of high
computational especially for big size database. This paper conducts a study to
optimize the time complexity of PCA (eigenfaces) that does not affects the
recognition performance. The authors minimize the participated eigenvectors
which consequently decreases the computational time. A comparison is done to
compare the differences between the recognition time in the original algorithm
and in the enhanced algorithm. The performance of the original and the enhanced
proposed algorithm is tested on face94 face database. Experimental results show
that the recognition time is reduced by 35% by applying our proposed enhanced
algorithm. DET Curves are used to illustrate the experimental results.Comment: 9 page
