This paper discusses the results of a study that aimed to develop an eigenface technique known as (PC) 2A that collect the image of the original face with its vertical and horizontal projections. The basic components of the image were analyzed in the image enrichment section. An evaluation of the proposed method demonstrates that it costs less than the standard eigenface technique. Moreover, the experimental results show that a front-end database that has a gray level for each person has one training image; thus, in terms of accuracy, it was possible to get a 3-5% result for the proposed (PC)2A, which is higher than the precision of the standard eigenface technique. The main objective of this paper is to demonstrate the weaknesses and strengthens of the facial recognition approach as an identifier known as eigenfaces. This aim was achieved by using the principal components analysis algorithm based on the images of previously stored training data. The outcomes show the strength of the proposed technique, in which it was possible to obtain accuracy results of up to 96%, which in turn provides support for developing the technique proposed in this paper in the future because this work is of great importance in the field of biological treatments, the need for which has significantly increased over the last 5 years.
