A NOVEL FACE RECOGNITION SYSTEM USING THE BINARY PHASE- ONLY FILTER VIA OPTIMAL CORRELATION THRESHOLDING

摘要

With the increasing amount of research in the area of face recognition and the influx of new theories, the development of a reliable and accurate face recognition system is a vital requisite. In this paper, a novel face recognition system via optical correlation thresh-holding using the Binary Phase-Only Filter is presented. The system is developed using the database created by AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. In course of the paper we also study the effect of an illumination correction algorithm on the recognition results.
