This paper firstly analyzes the principle of face recognition algorithm, studies feature selection and distance criterion problem, puts forward the defects of PCA face recognition algorithm and LDA face recognition algorithm. According to the deficiencies and shortcomings of PCA face recognition algorithm and LDA face recognition algorithm, this paper proposes a solution -- PCA+LDA. The method uses the PCA method to reduce the dimensionality of feature space, it uses Fisher linear discriminant analysis method to classification, the realization of face recognition. Experiments show that, this method can not only improve the feature extraction speed, but also the recognition rate is better than single PCA method and LDA method.

Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is an important feature extraction method. This paper proposes an improved linear discriminant analysis method, which redefines the within-class scatter matrix and introduces the normalized parameter to control the bias and variance of eigenvalues. In addition, it makes the between-class scatter matrix to weight and avoids the overlapping of neighboring class samples. Some experiments for the improved algorithm presented by us are performed on the ORL, FERET and YALE face databases, and it is compared with other commonly used methods. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is the effective.

The information applied technology of palmprint recognition is a biometric technology, it’s based on the effective information on the palm (such as: palmprint) to identifies people. The palmprint is unique and characteristic, these are the identification of critical conditions. The feature extraction of palmprint image is a prerequisite for recognition, feature extraction algorithm depends on the quality of the recognition rate and efficiency. This paper presents a method of palmprint recognition algorithm based on Fisher linear discriminant analysis and improved PCA algorithm. The experimental results show that, the recognition rate is improved.

We proposed a face recognition algorithm based on both the multilinear principal component analysis (MPCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). Compared with current traditional existing face recognition methods, our approach treats face images as multidimensional tensor in order to find the optimal tensor subspace for accomplishing dimension reduction. The LDA is used to project samples to a new discriminant feature space, while theKnearest neighbor (KNN) is adopted for sample set classification. The results of our study and the developed algorithm are validated with face databases ORL, FERET, and YALE and compared with PCA, MPCA, and PCA + LDA methods, which demonstrates an improvement in face recognition accuracy.

Image recognition of ethnic minority costumes is helpful for people to understand, carry forward, and inherit national culture. Taking the minority clothing image as the research object, the image enhancement and threshold segmentation are completed; the principal component features of the minority clothing image are extracted by PCA method; and the image matching degree is obtained according to the principle of minimizing the Euclidean distance. Finally, the calculation process of the PCA method is optimized by a wavelet transform algorithm to realize the recognition of popular elements of minority traditional clothing. The comparative experimental results show that the PCA + BP neural network algorithm is better than the other two recognition algorithms in recognition rate and recognition time.

As the most successful method of linear distinguish, principal component analysis(PCA) method is widely used in identify areas, such as face recognition. But traditional PCA is influenced by light conditions, facial expression and it extracts the global features of the image, so the recognition rate is not very high. In order to improve more accurately identify facial features and extract local features which account for a larger contribution to the identification. This paper brings up a method of a block face recognition based on wavelet transform (WT-BPCA). In the algorithm, face images are done two-dimensional wavelet decomposition, then from which extract low frequency sub-images. According to different face area makes different contribution to recognition, we use sub-block PCA method. According to the contribution of the block recognition results generate weighting factors, the face recognition rate based on PCA is effectively improved. Finally we construct classification to recognite. Do experiments in the ORL face database. Results show that this method is superior to the method of the traditional PCA.

Recently Kohonen proposed the Adaptive Subspace Self-Organizing Map (ASSOM) for extracting subspace detectors from the input data. In the ASSOM, all subspaces represented by the neurons are constrained to intersect the origin in the feature space. As a result, it cannot compensate for the mean present in the data set. In this paper we propose affined subspaces for constructing a set of linear manifolds. This gives rise to a modified ASSOM known as the Adaptive Manifold Self-Organizing Map (AMSOM). In some cases, AMSOM performs many orders of magnitude better than ASSOM. We apply AMSOM to face recognition. Since some face images may share a manifold due to similarities present in the images, we use a multi-layer neural network to divide the manifold into sub-areas each of which corresponds to a single class, e.g., a face class for Smith. Our experiment results show that this approach performs better than those obtained using the standard Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method.
