Face recognition is one of the biometric system that mostly used for individual recognition in the absent machine or access control. This is because the face is the most visible part of human anatomy and serves as the first distinguishing factor of a human being. Feature extraction and classification are the key to face recognition, as they are to any pattern classification task. In this paper, we describe a face recognition method based on Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and k-Nearest Neighbor classifier. LDA used for feature extraction, which directly extracts the proper features from image matrices with the objective of maximizing between-class variations and minimizing within-class variations. The features of a testing image will be compared to the features of database image using K-Nearest Neighbor classifier. The experiments in this paper are performed by using using 66 face images of 22 different people. The experimental result shows that the recognition accuracy is up to 98.33%. Index Terms—face recognition, k nearest neighbor, linear discriminant analysis.
