Local Representations and a direct Voting Scheme for Face Recognition
Roberto Paredes, Juan-Carlos Pérez-Cortés, Alfons Juan, Enrique Vidal · 2001
A new approach combining a simple local representation method with a k-nearest neighbours-based direct voting scheme is proposed for face recognition. This approach rises computational problems that we efectively solve through an approximate fast k-nearest neighbours search technique. Experimental results with the widely used Olivetti Research Ltd (ORL) face database are reported showing the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
