An Exploration of V-HOG on W-Quartette Space for Multi Face Recognition Issues

Illumination, Pose, and Expression variations are the major factors that put down the performance of face recognition system. This paper presents a dewy-eyed withal efficient hypothetical description for complex face recognition based on combination of w-Quartette Colorspace with Variant Hoglets (v-HOG) in sequel of our earlier work of fSVD [1]. Firstly, face image is mapped onto w-Quartette Colorspace to effectively interpret information existing in the image. Further variant Hoglet is employed to extract substantive features exhibiting linear properties to map line singularities and at the same time to derive tender features of face contortions. To foster the extracted features, the features are projected to a lower dimensional space for efficient face recognition. Five distinct distance measures are adopted as classifier to obtain appreciable recognition rate.
