This paper presents an efficient algorithm based on SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform), SURF (Speeded up Robust Features) and PCA. The method applies the SIFT and SURF algorithm in the detection and description for image features for a particular image and then applying PCA to the image for the better performance in matching in terms of rotation, expression and pose. The SURF technique is fast and robust interest point detector which is used in many computer vision applications. The basic process of face recognition system and improvement in matching the invariant faces is described in this paper. Performance can be seen on the basis of Recognition rate and Computation time. Image Processing Toolbox under MATLAB Software is used for the implementation of this proposed work.
