Discriminative dictionary learning algorithm based on sample diversity and locality of atoms for face recognition

摘要

Dictionary learning is one of the most important algorithms for face recognition. However, many dictionary learning algorithms for face recognition have the problems of small sample and weak discriminability. In this paper, a novel discriminative dictionary learning algorithm based on sample diversity and locality of atoms is proposed to solve the problems. The rational sample diversity is implemented by alternative samples and new error model to alleviate the small sample size problem. Moreover, locality can leads to sparsity and strong discriminability. In this paper, to enhance the dictionary discrimination and to reduce the influence of noise, the graph Laplacian matrix of atoms is used to keep the local information of the data. At the same, the relational theory is presented. A large number of experiments prove that the proposed algorithm can achieve more high performance than some state-of-the-art algorithms.
