Analyzing PCA-based Face Recognition Algorithms: Eigenvector Selection and Distance Measures
Abstract
Abstract. This study examines the role of Eigenvector selection and Eigenspace distance measures on PCA-based face recognition systems. In particular, it builds on earlier results from the FERET face recognition evaluation studies, which created a large face database (1,196 subjects) and a baseline face recognition system for comparative evaluations. This study looks at using a combinations of traditional distance measures (City-block, Euclidean, Angle, Mahalanobis) in Eigenspace to improve performance in the matching stage of face recognition. A statistically signi cant improvement is observed for the Mahalanobis distance alone when compared to the other three alone. However, no combinations of these measures appear to perform better than Mahalanobis alone. This study also examines questions of how many EIgenvectors to select and according to what ordering criterion. It compares variations in perfor-mance due to dierent distance measures and numbers of Eigenvectors. Ordering Eigenvectors according to a like-image dierence value rather than their Eigenvalues is also considered. 1

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
