A spectral feature based approach for face recognition with one training sample

摘要

In this paper, a novel spectral feature image-based 2DLDA (two-dimensional linear discriminant analysis) ensemble algorithm is proposed for face recognition with one sample image per person. In our algorithm, multi-resolution spectral feature images are constructed to represent the face images. The proposed method is inspired by our finding that, among these spectral feature images, features extracted from some orientations and scales using 2DLDA are not sensitive to variations of illumination and expression. In order to maintain the positive characteristics of these filters and to make correct category assignments, the strategy of classifier committee learning (CCL) is designed to combine the results obtained from different spectral feature images. Experimental results on the standard databases demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method.
