Machine-Learning-Based Approach for Face Recognition

Abstract

Face recognition has been one of the most interesting and important research areas for real time applications. There is a need and necessity to design efficient machine leaning based approach for automatic recognitions and surveillance systems. Face recognition also used the knowledge from other disciplines such as neuroscience, psychology, computer vision, pattern recognition, image processing, and machine learning, etc. This chapter provides a review of machine learning based techniques for the face recognition. First, it presents an overview of face recognition and its challenges then, a literature review of machine learning based approaches for face detection and recognition is presented.
