In this article, a face recognition system using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) algorithm was implemented. The algorithm is based on an eigenfaces approach which represents a PCA method in which a small set of significant features are used to describe the variation between face images. Experimental results for different numbers of eigenfaces are shown to verify the viability of the proposed method.

Local Spatial Information

We have proposed a patch-based principal component analysis (PCA) method to deal with face recognition. Many PCA-based methods for face recognition utilize the correlation between pixels, columns, or rows. But the local spatial information is not utilized or not fully utilized in these methods. We believe that patches are more meaningful basic units for face recognition than pixels, columns, or rows, since faces are discerned by patches containing eyes and noses. To calculate the correlation between patches, face images are divided into patches and then these patches are converted to column vectors which would be combined into a new “image matrix.” By replacing the images with the new “image matrix” in the two-dimensional PCA framework, we directly calculate the correlation of the divided patches by computing the total scatter. By optimizing the total scatter of the projected samples, we obtain the projection matrix for feature extraction. Finally, we use the nearest neighbor classifier. Extensive experiments on the ORL and FERET face database are reported to illustrate the performance of the patch-based PCA. Our method promotes the accuracy compared to one-dimensional PCA, two-dimensional PCA, and two-directional two-dimensional PCA.

Face detection and face recognition are among the most important research topics in computer vision, as many applications use faces as objects of biometric technology. One of the main issues in applying face recognition is recording the attendance of active participants in a room. The challenge is that recognition through video with multiple object conditions in one frame may be difficult to perform. The Principal Component Analysis method is commonly used in face detection. Principal Component Analysis still has shortcomings: the accuracy decreases when it is applied to large datasets and performs slowly in real-time applications. Therefore, this study simulates a face recognition system installed in a room based on video recordings using Non-negative Matrix Factorization suppressed carrier and Local Non-negative Matrix Factorization methods. Data acquisition is obtained by capturing video in classrooms with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels in RGB, .avi format, video frame rate of 30 fps, and video duration of ±10 seconds. The proposed system can perform face recognition in which the average accuracy value of the Local Non-negative Matrix Factorization method is 71.61% with a computation time of 152,634 seconds. By contrast, the average accuracy value of the Non-negative Matrix Factorization suppressed carrier method is 86.76% with a computation time of 467,785 seconds. The proposed system is expected to be used for simultaneously finding and identifying faces in real time.

The two-dimensional principal component analysis (2D-PCA) method has been widely applied in fields of image classification, computer vision, signal processing and pattern recognition. The 2D-PCA algorithm also has a satisfactory performance in both theoretical research and real-world applications. It not only retains main information of the original face images, but also decreases the dimension of original face images. In this paper, we integrate the 2D-PCA and spare representation classification (SRC) method to distinguish face images, which has great performance in face recognition. The novel representation of original face image obtained using 2D-PCA is complementary with original face image, so that the fusion of them can obviously improve the accuracy of face recognition. This is also attributed to the fact the features obtained using 2D-PCA are usually more robust than original face image matrices. The experiments of face recognition demonstrate that the combination of original face images and new representations of the original face images is more effective than the only original images. Especially, the simultaneous use of the 2D-PCA method and sparse representation can extremely improve accuracy in image classification. In this paper, the adaptive weighted fusion scheme automatically obtains optimal weights and it has no any parameter. The proposed method is not only simple and easy to achieve, but also obtains high accuracy in face recognition.

<span lang="EN-US">Face recognition is a considerable problem in the field of image processing. It is used daily in various applications from personal cameras to forensic investigations. Most of the provides solutions proposed based on full-face images, are slow to compute and need more storage. In this paper, we propose an effective way to reduce the features and size of the database in the face recognition method and thus we get an increase in the speed of discrimination by using half of the face. Taking advantage of face symmetry, the first step is to divide the face image into two halves, then the left half is processed using the principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm, and the results are compared by using Euclidian distance to distinguish the person. The system was trained and tested on ORL database. It was found that the accuracy of the system reached up to 96%, and the database was minimized by 46% and the running time was decreased from 120 msec to 70 msec with a 41.6% reduction.</span>

Face recognition has been an active research area since late 1980s [1]. Eigenface approach is one of the earliest appearance-based face recognition methods, which was developed by M. Turk and A. Pentland [1] in 1991. In this approach we have to perform a lots of computations, which are not feasible with respect to time in many real time system. The concept of principal component analysis (PCA) is used in this approach to reduce the dimension and hence reducing the computation time. Principal component analysis [4] decomposes face images into a small set of characteristic feature images called eigen faces.
