High information redundancy and correlation in face images result in
inefficiencies when such images are used directly for recognition. In
this paper, discrete cosine transforms are used to reduce image
information redundancy because only a subset of the transform
coefficients are necessary to preserve the most important facial
features such as hair outline, eyes and mouth. We demonstrate
experimentally that when DCT coefficients are fed into a backpropagation
neural network for classification, a high recognition rate can be
achieved by using a very small proportion of transform coefficients.
This makes DCT-based face recognition much faster than other
approaches.
