A Direct Locality Preserving Projections (DLPP) Algorithm for Image Recognition

摘要

This paper proposes a novel locality preserving projections (LPP) algorithm for image recognition, namely, the direct locality preserving projections (DLPP), which directly optimizes locality preserving criterion on high-dimensional raw images data via simultaneous diagonalization, without any dimensionality reduction preprocessing. Our algorithm is a direct and complete implementation of LPP. Experimental results on the PolyU palmprint database and ORL face database show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
