In this paper, an evaluation using various training data sets for discrimination of dysmorphic facial features with distinctive information will be presented. We utilize Gabor Wavelet Transform (GWT) as feature extractor, K+Nearest Neighbor (K+NN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) a s statistical classifiers. We analyzed the classification accuracy according to increasing dimension of training data set, selecting kernel function for SVM and distance metric for K+NN. At the end of the overall classification task, GWT+SVM app roach with Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel type achieved the best classification accuracy rate as 97,5% with 400 images in training data set.
