Face recognition (FR) has drawn considerable interest and attention in the area of pattern recognition. FR is still a challenging task in real time applications even though they are a number of face recognition algorithms which are available and work in various constrained environment. The paper proposes a FR algorithm using Modified Local Ternary Pattern (MLTP) with multi class Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. The MLTP features of the face images are classified by an Error-Correcting Output Code (ECOC) multiclass model with SVM. The proposed method is tested on six standard face databases. The experimental results have been demonstrated that the performance of MLTP with SVM can achieve higher recognition accuracy compared to the conventional methods.
