Recent submissions in linear dimensionality reduction and face recognition

During the last few years the interest for linear dimensionality reduction (LDR) raised significantly in the pattern recognition domain. Especially the small sample size case (more dimensions than examples) received intense attention. Many papers are illustrated by examples and experiments on pixel-based image recognition, most of these specifically aim at face recognition, often using a public domain face image database. These papers can be roughly divided into the following groups:
