Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for facial recognition based on features fusion in support vector machine (SVM). First, some local features and global features from pre-processed face images are obtained. The global features are obtained by making use of singular value decomposition (SVD). At the same time, the local features are obtained by utilizing principal component analysis (PCA) to extract the principal Gabor features. Finally, the feature vectors which are fused with global and local features are used to train SVM to realize the face expression recognition, and the computer simulation illustrates the effectivity of this method on the JAFFE database.
