Yuanyuan Huang, Jianping Li, Guiduo Duan, Jie Lin, Dekun Hu, Bo Fu · 2010
This paper summarizes the recent development of illumination compensation for face recognition. Then a new method is proposed by extracting illumination invariant features in contourlet transform domain based on human visual perception mechanism. The experimental results on Yale B and CMU PIE face databases demonstrate that it is effective and competitive.
