Abstract
Feature extraction has always been an important step in face recognition, the quality of which directly determines recognition result. Based on making full use of advantages of Sparse Preserving Projection (SPP) on feature extraction, the discriminant information was introduced into SPP to arrive at a novel supervised feather extraction method that named Uncorrelated Discriminant SPP (UDSPP) algorithm. The obtained projection with the method by sparse preserving intra-class and maximizing distance inter-class can effectively express discriminant information, while preserving local neighbor relationship. Moreover, statistics uncorrelated constraint was also added to decrease redundancy among feature vectors so as to obtain more information as possible with little vectors as possible. The experimental results show that the recognition rate improved compared with SPP. The method is also superior to recognition methods based on Euclidean distance in processing face database in light.
