Wavelet 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 Wavelet 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 Wavelet-based face recognition much
more
accurate than other approaches.
The code has been tested with AT&T
database achieving an excellent recognition rate of 97.90% (40 classes, 5
training images and 5 test images for each class, hence there are 200 training images and 200 test images in total
randomly selected and no overlap exists
between the training and test images).
