Research on the Face Recognition Methods Based on Fuzzy Neural Networks

Human face recognition is an important subject in the area of pattern recognition, which has a wide range of potential applications. We propose a face recognition method based on fuzzy neural networks. An optimal set of discriminant vectors are extracted by the optimal discriminant analysis method, which is formed into a feature space in which a fuzzy neural classifier is designed. Numerical experimental results on the facial database of ORL show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
