Algorithm of face recognition by principal component analysis

A face recognition algorithm based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been developed and tested for computer vision applications. A database of about 400 facial images was used to test the algorithm. Each image is represented by a matrix (112x 92). The database is divided into subsets, where...
