ABSTRACT: This project entitled "Comparative analysis of advanced Face Recognition Techniques", it is based on fuzzy c means clustering and associated sub neural network. It deals with the face is a complex multidimensional visual model and developing a computational model for face recognition is difficult. In this paper, it represents a method for face recognition base on similar neural networks. Neural networks (NNs) have been widely used in various fields. However, the computing effectiveness decreases rapidly if the scale of the NN increases. In this paper, a new method of face recognition based on fuzzy clustering and parallel NNs is proposed. The face patterns are divided into several small-scale neural networks based on fuzzy clustering and they are combine to obtain the recognition result. The facial feature vector was compared by PCA and LDA methods. In particular, the proposed method achieved 98.75% recognition accuracy for 240 patterns of 20 registrants and a 99.58% rejection rate for 240 patterns of 20 nonregistrants. Experimental results show that the performance of our new face-recognition method is better than those of the LDA based face recognition system
