Gang Yan, Jiawei Li, Jiayu Li, Qingli Ma, Ming Yu · 2009
The change of illumination problem is still a challenging and difficult problem in face recognition under complex illumination condition. There were many proposals that dealing with illumination problem in face recognition in the past decade. In this paper, we classify the existing methods into three main categories and introduce the representative algorithms and theories, then analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these algorithms correspondingly. As a result of this study we conclude direction of future research.
