Abstract
Face recognition is grabbing more attention in the area of network information access. Areas such as network security and content retrieval benefit from face recognition technology. In the proposed method, multiple face eigensubspaces are created, with each one corresponding to one known subject privately, rather than all individuals sharing one universal subspace as in the traditional eigenface method. Compared with the traditional single subspace face representation, the proposed method captures the extra personal difference to the most possible extent, which is crucial to distinguish between individuals, and on the other hand, it throws away the most intrapersonal difference and noise in the input. Our experiments strongly support the proposed idea, in which 20% improvement of performance over the traditional “eigenface” has been observed when tested on the same face base.
Key words: Face recognition, eigenspace, subspaces.
