Face recognition based on PCA image reconstruction and LDA

Face recognition has become a research hotspot in the field of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) are two traditional methods in pattern recognition. In this paper, we propose a novel method based on PCA image reconstruction and LDA for face recognition. First, the inner-classes covariance matrix for feature extraction is used as generating matrix and then eigenvectors from each person is obtained, then we obtain the reconstructed images. Moreover, the residual images are computed by subtracting reconstructed images from original face images. Furthermore, the residual images are applied by LDA to obtain the coefficient matrices. Finally, the features are utilized to train and test SVMs for face recognition. The simulation experiments illustrate the effectivity of this method on the ORL face database.     

Face recognition based on PCA and logistic regression analysis

Face recognition is an important research hotspot. More and more new methods have been proposed in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel face recognition method which is based on PCA and logistic regression. PCA is one of the most important methods in pattern recognition. Therefore, in our method, PCA is used to extract feature and reduce the dimensions of process data. Afterwards, we present a novel classification algorithm and use logistic regression as the classifier for face recognition. The experimental results on two different face databases are presented to illustrate the efficacy of our proposed method.

Moreover, kernel trick is applied to extend SGGLPP called KSGGLPP by on the performance of nonlinear feature extraction. Experiments are implemented on UCI database and two real image databases to testify the feasibility and performance of the proposed algorithm.

Signal feature recognition based on lightwave neuromorphic signal processing

We developed a hybrid analog/digital lightwave neuromorphic processing device that effectively performs signal feature recognition. The approach, which mimics the neurons in a crayfish responsible for the escape response mechanism, provides a fast and accurate reaction to its inputs. The analog processing portion of the device uses the integration characteristic of an electro-absorption modulator, while the digital processing portion employ optical thresholding in a highly Ge-doped nonlinear loop mirror. The device can be configured to respond to different sets of input patterns by simply varying the weights and delays of the inputs. We experimentally demonstrated the use of the proposed lightwave neuromorphic signal processing device for recognizing specific input patterns.

A sparse representation method based on kernel and virtual samples for face recognition

To improve the classification accuracy of face recognition, a sparse representation method based on kernel and virtual samples is proposed in this paper. The proposed method has the following basic idea: first, it extends the training samples by copying the left side of the original training samples to the right side to form virtual training samples. Then the virtual training samples and the original training samples make up a new training set and we use a kernel-induced distance to determine M nearest neighbors of the test sample from the new training set. Second, it expresses the test sample as a linear combination of the selected M nearest training samples and finally exploits the determined linear combination to perform classification of the test sample. A large number of face recognition experiments on different face databases illustrate that the error ratios obtained by our method are always lower more or less than face recognition methods including the method mentioned in Xu and Zhu [21], the method proposed in Xu and Zhu [39], sparse representation method based on virtual samples (SRMVS), collaborative representation based classification with regularized least square (CRC_RLS), two-phase test sample sparse representation (TPTSSR), and the feature space-based representation method.     

Palmprint recognition based on the representation in the feature space

In this paper, we propose a palmprint recognition method based on the representation in the feature space. The proposed method seeks to represent the test sample as a linear combination of all the training samples in the feature space and then exploits the obtained linear combination to perform palmprint recognition. We can implement the mapping from the original space to the feature space by using the kernel functions such as radial basis function (RBF). In this method, the selection of the parameter of the kernel function is important. We propose an automatic algorithm for selecting the parameter. The basic idea of the algorithm is to optimize the feature space such that the samples from the same class are well clustered while the samples from different classes are pushed far away. The proposed criterion measures the goodness of a feature space, and the optimal kernel parameter is obtained by minimizing this criterion. Experimental results on multispectral palmprint database show that the proposed method is more effective than 2DPCA, 2DLDA, AANNC, CRC_RLS, nearest neighbor method (NN) and competitive coding method in terms of the correct recognition rate.

Results show that the proposed algorithm has better effect than the classic edge detection operators, which can identify the defects’ geometric feature much more completely and clearly. The defects’ diameters have been calculated based on the image edge detection results.
