Abstract

Face recognition from images is a sub-area of the general object recognition problem. It is of particular interest in a wide variety of applications. Here, the face recognition is based on the new proposed modified PCA algorithm by using some components of the LDA algorithm of the face recognition. The proposed algorithm is based on the measure of the principal components of the faces and also to find the shortest distance between them. The experimental results demonstrate that this arithmetic can improve the face recognition rate. Experimental results on ORL face database show that the method has higher correct recognition rate and higher recognition speeds than traditional PCA algorithm.
