Face Recognition using Sub-Holistic PCA

Muhammad Murtaza Khan, Mohammed Javed, Muhammad Almas Anjum · 2006

This paper proposes a face recognition scheme that enhances the correct face recognition rate as compared to conventional Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The proposed scheme, Sub-Holistic PCA (SH-PCA), was tested using ORL database and out performed PCA for all test scenarios. SH-PCA requires more computational power and memory as compared to PCA however it yields an improvement of 6% correct recognition on the complete ORL database of 400 images. The correct recognition rate for the complete ORL database is 90% for the SH-PCA technique.
