Face recognition has become a popular area of research in computer vision, it is typically used in network security systems and access control systems but it is also useful in other multimedia information processing areas. One of its application is criminal face identification. Criminal record generally contains personal information about particular person along with the photograph. To identify any criminal we need some identification regarding particular person or persons, which are given by eyewitnesses. Based on the details given by the eyewitnesses, the further investigation would be carried out. In most cases the quality and resolution of the recorded image segments is poor and hard to identify a face. In this paper, we have classified image processing operations into three categories; low, medium and high level to process and analyze a given face. This paper presents better results than conventional methods in use relating to the face recognition process that are used in criminal identification.
