Abstract

A novel method for face recognition system using challenging profile and frontal faces is proposed in this paper. The proposed face recognition system consists of pre-processing, feature extraction and classification components. In this work, for pre-processing, the face region is extracted using facial landmark points, obtained by the tree structured part model. During feature extraction, SIFT descriptors are computed from the detected face region, and Spatial Pyramid Matching approach based on Locality constraints Linear Coding technique is employed for feature representation. Finally multi-class linear SVM classifier is employed to do the classification job. Extensive experimental results have been performed to show that the proposed algorithm has satisfying performance as compared to existing methods for IITK, CASIA-FACE-V5, LIBOR, ORL and Extended YALE-B face databases.
