This paper presents a horizontal and vertical 2D principal component analysis (2DPCA) based discriminant analysis (HVDA) method for face verification.

Abstract

The HVDA method, which derives features by applying DPCA horizontally and vertically on the image matrices (2D arrays), achieves high computational efficiency compared with the traditional PCA and/or LDA based methods that operate on high dimensional image vectors (1D arrays). The HVDA method further performs discriminant analysis to enhance the discriminating power of the horizontal and vertical 2DPCA features. Finally, the HVDA method takes advantage of the color 305990 What kind of color spaces is suitable for color face recognition?
