Advanced variations of two-dimensional principal component analysis for face recognition

摘要

The two-dimensional principal component analysis (2DPCA) has been one of the basic methods of developing artificial intelligent algorithms. To increase the feasibility, we propose a new general ridge regression model for 2DPCA and variations, with extracting low dimensional features under two projection subspaces. A new relaxed 2DPCA under the quaternion framework is proposed to utilize the label (if known) and color information to compute the essential features of generalization ability with optimization algorithms. The 2DPCA-based approaches for face recognition are also improved by weighting each principle component a scatter measure, which increases efficiently the rate of face recognition. In numerical experiments on well-known standard databases, the R2DPCA approach has high generalization ability and achieves a higher recognition rate than the state-of-the-art 2DPCA-like methods, and has better performance than the basic deep learning methods such as CNNs, DBNs, and DNNs in the small-sample case.(c) 2020 Elsevier B.V.
