In this paper, the purpose is to find a method that can be more suited to facial expression change and also improve the recognition rate. The proposed system contains three parts, wavelet transform, Fisher linear discriminant method feature extraction and face classification. The basic idea of the proposed method is that first extract the low-frequency components through wavelet transform, then the low-frequency images mapped into a low-dimensional space by PCA transform, and finally the utilization of LDA feature extraction method in low-dimensional space. The algorithms were tested on ORL and Yale face database, respectively. Experimental results shows that the proposed method not only improve the recognition rate, but also improve the recognition speed. This method can effectively overcome the impact of expression changes on face recognition, and play a certain role in inhibition of expression.

To carry out an effective classification and recognition for target, this paper studied the target owned characteristics, discussed a decryption algorithm, gave a feature extraction method based on the decryption process, and extracted the feature of palmprint in region of interest. Moreover, this paper used the wavelet transform to extract the energy feature of target, gave an approach on matching and recognition to improve the correctness and efficiency of existing recognition approaches, and compared it with existing approaches of palmprint recognition by experiments. The experiment results show that the correct recognition rate of the approach in this paper is improved averagely by 2.34% than that of the existing recognition approaches.

Abstract In this paper, a new feature-extraction method is proposed to achieve robustness of speech recognition systems. This method combines the benefits of phase autocorrelation (PAC) with bark wavelet transform. PAC uses the angle to measure correlation instead of the traditional autocorrelation measure, whereas the bark wavelet transform is a special type of wavelet transform that is particularly designed for speech signals. The extracted features from this combined method are called phase autocorrelation bark wavelet transform (PACWT) features. The speech recognition performance of the PACWT features is evaluated and compared to the conventional feature extraction method mel frequency cepstrum coefficients (MFCC) using TI-Digits database under different types of noise and noise levels. This database has been divided into male and female data. The result shows that the word recognition rate using the PACWT features for noisy male data (white noise at 0 dB SNR) is 60%, whereas it is 41.35% for the MFCC features under identical conditions

Due to the nonlinear and high-dimensional characteristics of motor imagery electroencephalography (MI-EEG), it can be challenging to get high online accuracy. As a nonlinear dimension reduction method, landmark maximum variance unfolding (L-MVU) can completely retain the nonlinear features of MI-EEG. However, L-MVU still requires considerable computation costs for out-of-sample data. An incremental version of L-MVU (denoted as IL-MVU) is proposed in this paper. The low-dimensional representation of the training data is generated by L-MVU. For each out-of-sample data, its nearest neighbors will be found in the high-dimensional training samples and the corresponding reconstruction weight matrix be calculated to generate its low-dimensional representation as well. IL-MVU is further combined with the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT), which develops a hybrid feature extraction method (named as IL-MD). IL-MVU is applied to extract the nonlinear features of the specific subband signals, which are reconstructed by DTCWT and have the obvious event-related synchronization/event-related desynchronization phenomenon. The average energy features of α and β waves are calculated simultaneously. The two types of features are fused and are evaluated by a linear discriminant analysis classifier. Based on the two public datasets with 12 subjects, extensive experiments were conducted. The average recognition accuracies of 10-fold cross-validation are 92.50% on Dataset 3b and 88.13% on Dataset 2b, and they gain at least 1.43% and 3.45% improvement, respectively, compared to existing methods. The experimental results show that IL-MD can extract more accurate features with relatively lower consumption cost, and it also has better feature visualization and self-adaptive characteristics to subjects. The t-test results and Kappa values suggest the proposed feature extraction method reaches statistical significance and has high consistency in classification.

To address the problem that the dimension of the feature vector extracted by Local Binary Pattern (LBP) for face recognition is too high and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) extract features are not the best classification features, an efficient feature extraction method using LBP, PCA and Maximum scatter difference (MSD) has been introduced in this paper. The original face image is firstly divided into sub-images, then the LBP operator is applied to extract the histogram feature. and the feature dimensions are further reduced by using PCA. Finally,MSD is performed on the reduced PCA-based feature.The experimental results on ORL and Yale database demonstrate that the proposed method can classify more effectively and can get higher recognition rate than the traditional recognition methods.
