چکیده

This paper presents a new feature selection method by modifying fitness function of genetic algorithm. Our implementation environment is a face recognition system which uses genetic algorithm for feature selection and k-Nearest Neighbor as a classifier together with our proposed Swap Training. In each iteration of genetic algorithm for assessment of one specific chromosome, swaps training switch the training and test data with each other. By using this method, genetic algorithm does not quickly converge to local minimums and final recognition rate will be enhanced. Obtained results from implementing the proposed technique on Yale Face database show performance improvement of genetic algorithm in selecting proper features. Keywordsface recognition; feature selection; principal component analysis; genetic algorithm; k-Nearest Neighbor classifier.

Face Feature Selection with Binary Particle Swarm Optimization and Support Vector Machine

A face feature selection and recognition method based on BPSO and SVMWrapper model is presented. To solve the problem that DCT coefficients dimension is higher for face recognition, we design a SVM-Wrapper model based on BPSO. In the process of training SVM, the cross-validation is used to training samples, and the recognition accuracy is used for defining the fitness function of BPSO feature s...

Introducing a method for extracting features from facial images based on applying transformations to features obtained from convolutional neural networks

In pattern recognition, features are denoting some measurable characteristics of an observed phenomenon and feature extraction is the procedure of measuring these characteristics. A set of features can be expressed by a feature vector which is used as the input data of a system. An efficient feature extraction method can improve the performance of a machine learning system such as face recognit...

Feature selection using genetic algorithm for classification of schizophrenia using fMRI data

In this paper we propose a new method for classification of subjects into schizophrenia and control groups using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. In the preprocessing step, the number of fMRI time points is reduced using principal component analysis (PCA). Then, independent component analysis (ICA) is used for further data analysis. It estimates independent components (ICs) of...

Gabor Feature Selection for Face Recognition

A discriminative and robust feature kernel enhanced informative Gabor feature is proposed in this paper for face recognition. Mutual information is applied to select a set of informative and non-redundant Gabor features, which are then further enhanced by Kernel methods for recognition. Compared with one of the top performing methods in the 2004 Face Verification Competition (FVC2004), our meth...
