Research on Face Recognition Algorithm Based on HOG Feature

Abstract

Abstract As a common biometric recognition technology, face recognition is also an important research direction in the field of computer. Although compared with the initial research, the current research has made great progress, but there are still many difficulties in practical application. In this paper, by extracting HOG features, after introducing the detailed steps of PCA and LDA subspace feature extraction methods, dimensionality reduction feature extraction method combing PCA with LDA is applied to extract face features. This method first uses PCA to reduce the dimension of face features, and then uses LDA for linear discriminant analysis. Finally, the feature extraction methods based on PCA and LDA are tested and compared in FERET standard face database and CAS-PEAL database of Chinese Academy of Sciences
