Wenhui Li, Ning Ma, Zhiyan Wang · Advanced science and technology letters · 2014

In this paper, based on the study of the Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis (2DPCA), Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis (2DPCA) and fuzzy set theory, we propose a integrated face recognition algorithm based on wavelet subspace. This method can make good use of the advantages of each single method, and also can make up for the defect of each other. The comparison of the results of the different methods identification effect on the ORL、YALE and FERET face database show, the integrated method proposed in this paper improves the recognition rate, and it also reduces the training and classification time as well. Key word: face recognition; Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis (2DPCA); Two-Dimensional Linear Discriminant Analysis (2DLDA); fuzzy set theory; feature extraction be divided into several categories:the method based on geometric features、the method based on model、the method based on the statistical、the method based on neural network method and the method of combining multiple classifiers, this paper mainly focuses on the method based on statistics. The method based on statistical faced the image as random vector, thus using some statistical methods to analyze the face model, the most representative methods include the eigenface method based on principal component analysis which proposed by Turk M (2)
