Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform derives desirable facial features to cope with the variation due to the illumination and facial expression changes. By adopting spectral regression and complex fusion technologies respectively, two improved neighborhood preserving discriminant analysis feature extraction methods were proposed to capture the face manifold structures and locality discriminatory information. Extensive experiments have been made to compare the recognition performance of the proposed method with some popular dimensionality reduction methods on ORL and Yale face databases. The results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多
