In this paper, a new Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based face recognition
system is proposed. As a novel point despite of five-state HMM used in pervious
researches, we used 7-state HMM to cover more details. Indeed we add two new face
regions, eyebrows and chin, to the model. As another novel point, we used a small number
of quantized Singular Values Decomposition (SVD) coefficients as feature...
