Nisha Soni, Mahendra Kumar, Garima Mathur · International Journal of Computer Applications · 2013
This paper deals with 3 different techniques for feature extraction of image.Face detection is a necessary first-step in face recognition systems, with the purpose of localizing and extracting the face region from the background.The Self-Organizing Map (SOM) Neural Network has been used for training of database and simulation of FR system.The developed algorithm for the face recognition system formulates an image-based approach, using discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT) and Sobel edge detection, simulated in MATLAB.Simulation results are very promising.
