Face Recognition using Multiple Constrained Mutual Subspace Method
[Abstract]
In this paper, we propose a novel method named the Multiple
Constrained Mutual Subspace Method which increases the accuracy of
face recognition by introducing a framework provided by ensemble learning.
In our method we represent the set of patterns as a low-dimensional
subspace, and calculate the similarity between an input subspace and
a reference subspace, representing learnt identity. To extract effective
features for identification both subspaces are projected onto multiple
constraint subspaces. For generating constraint subspaces we apply ensemble
learning algorithms, i.e. Bagging and Boosting. Through experimental
results we show the effectiveness of our method.
