The algorithm is able to track the human face against a complex background and also works well when temporary occlusion occurs. We also obtain a very high recognition rate by averaging a number of samples over a long image sequence. The proposed approach has been successfully tested by many experiments, and can operate at 20 frames/s on an 800 MHz PC.展开更多

Initially the eigenspace is created with eigenvalues and eigenvectors. From this space, the eigenfaces are constructed, and the most relevant eigenfaees have been selected using GPCA. With these eigenfaees, the input images are classified based on Euclidian distance. The proposed method was tested on ORL （Olivetti Research Labs） face database. Experimental results on this database demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed method for face recognition has less misclassification in comparison with previous methods.展开更多

Adopting the Gaussian kernel, with the kernel width adaptively estimated by a simple technique, it is applied to eigenface classification. Experimental results on the ORL face database show that it improves performance by around 6 points, in classification rate, over the Euclidean distance classifier.展开更多

This approach achieves the purpose of rapid attendance. PCA is an early and important approach for face recognization. It can reduce the dimension of face image space as well as describe the variation characteristics between different face images. The attendance system is a realtime system that requires shorter response time, for which PCA is a best choice. We use histogram equalization to eliminate the noise and improve the performance. With convenient MATLAB GUI visual operation interface, users can click on the corresponding button to implement face recognition tasks.展开更多

To provide additional variations to training data set, even-odd decomposition is adopted, and only the even components (half-even face images) are used for further processing. To tackle with shift-variant problem,Fourier transform is applied to half-even face images. To reduce the dimension of an image,PCA (Principle Component Analysis) features are extracted from the amplitude spectrum of half-even face images. Finally, nearest neighbor classifier is employed for the task of classification. Experimental results on ORL database show that the proposed method outperforms in terms of accuracy the conventional eigenface method which applies PCA on original images and the eigenface method which uses both the original images and their mirror images as training set.展开更多
