A New Optimized Approach to Face Recognition Using EigenFaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Eigenface approach is one of the simplest and most efficient methods for face recognition. In eigenface approach chosing the threshold, value is a very important factor for performance of face recognition. In addition, the dimensional reduction of face space depends upon number of eigenfaces taken. In this paper, an optimized solution for face recognition is given by taking the optimized value of threshold value and number of eigenfaces. The experimental results show that if the threshold value is 0.8 times of maximum value of minimum Euclidian distances of each image from other images, then maximum recognition rate is achieved. Also only 15% of Eigenfaces with the largest eigen values are sufficient for the recognition of a person. Best optimized solution for face recognition is provided when both the factors are combined i.e. 15% of eigenfaces with largest eigen values are selected and threshold value is chosen 0.8 times maximum of minimum Euclidean distances of each image from all other images, it will greatly improve the recognition performance of a human face up to 97%. Keywords-: Eigenface, Face recognition, Euclidean distance.

متن کاملFace Recognition by Cognitive Discriminant Features
Face recognition is still an active pattern analysis topic. Faces have already been treated as objects or textures, but human face recognition system takes a different approach in face recognition. People refer to faces by their most discriminant features. People usually describe faces in sentences like ``She's snub-nosed'' or ``he's got long nose'' or ``he's got round eyes'' and so like. These...

متن کاملSummary : ” Eigenfaces for Recognition ” ( M . Turk , A . Pentland )
”Eigenfaces for Recognition” seeks to implement a system capable of efficient, simple, and accurate face recognition in a constrained environment (such as a household or an office). The system does not depend on 3-D models or intuitive knowledge of the structure of the face (eyes, nose, mouth). Classification is instead performed using a linear combination of characteristic features (eigenfaces...
متن کاملImplementation of Pose Invariant Face Recognition using Eigenface Approach
Face recognition is one among the several techniques for identification and verification of an individual. The approach in the present work transforms face images into a small set of characteristic feature images called eigenfaces, which are the principal components of the initial training set of face images. Recognition is performed by projecting a new image into subspace spanned by eigenfaces...
