Competitive Sparse Representation Classification for Face Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method, named competitive sparse representation classification (CSRC), is proposed for face recognition in this paper. CSRC introduces a lowest competitive deletion mechanism which removes the lowest competitive sample based on the competitive ability of training samples for representing a probe in multiple rounds collaborative linear representation. In other words, in each round of competing, whether a training sample is retained or not in the next round depends on the ability of representing the input probe. Because of the number of training samples used for representing the probe decreases in CSRC, the coding vector is transformed into a low dimensional space comparing with the initial coding vector. Then the sparse representation makes CSRC discriminative for classifying the probe. In addition, due to the fast algorithm, the FR system has less computational cost. To verify the validity of CSRC, we conduct a series of experiments on AR, Extended YB, and ORL databases respectively. Keywords—face recognition; collaborative representation sparse representation; and competitive representation

Face Recognition using an Affine Sparse Coding approach
Sparse coding is an unsupervised method which learns a set of over-complete bases to represent data such as image and video. Sparse coding has increasing attraction for image classification applications in recent years. But in the cases where we have some similar images from different classes, such as face recognition applications, different images may be classified into the same class, and hen...
متن کاملIterative Weighted Non-smooth Non-negative Matrix Factorization for Face Recognition
Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method. It comes from the intuitive idea that entire face image can be constructed by combining several parts. In this paper, we propose a framework for face recognition by finding localized, part-based representations, denoted “Iterative weighted non-smooth non-negative matrix factorization” (IWNS-NMF). A new cost fun...
متن کاملCompetitive Representation Based Classification Using Facial Noise Detection
Linear representation based face recognition is hotly studied in recent years. Competitive representation classification is a linear representation based method which uses the most competitive training samples to sparsely represent a probe. However, possible noises on a test face image can bias the representation results. In this paper we propose a facial noise detection method to remove noises...
متن کاملFace Recognition in Thermal Images based on Sparse Classifier
Despite recent advances in face recognition systems, they suffer from serious problems because of the extensive types of changes in human face (changes like light, glasses, head tilt, different emotional modes). Each one of these factors can significantly reduce the face recognition accuracy. Several methods have been proposed by researchers to overcome these problems. Nonetheless, in recent ye...
