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 %
Relaxed 2-D Principal Component Analysis by Norm for Face Recognition
A relaxed two dimensional principal component analysis (R2DPCA) approach is
proposed for face recognition. Different to the 2DPCA, 2DPCA- and G2DPCA,
the R2DPCA utilizes the label information (if known) of training samples to
calculate a relaxation vector and presents a weight to each subset of training
data. A new relaxed scatter matrix is defined and the computed projection axes
are able to increase the accuracy of face recognition. The optimal -norms
are selected in a reasonable range. Numerical experiments on practical face
databased indicate that the R2DPCA has high generalization ability and can
achieve a higher recognition rate than state-of-the-art methods.Comment: 19 pages, 11 figure
Face recognition based on ordinal correlation approach
In this paper, we propose a new face recognition system based on the ordinal correlation principle. First, we will explain the ordinal similarity measure for any two images and then propose a systematic approach for face recognition based on this ordinal measure. In addition, we will design an algorithm for selecting a suitable classification threshold via using the information obtained from the training database. Finally, experimentation is conducted on the Yale datasets and the results show that the proposed face recognition approach outperforms the Eigenface and 2DPCA approaches significantly and also the threshold selection algorithm works effectively. 1
