Abstract: | Local feature-based approaches mainly aim to achieve robustness to variations in facial images by assuming that only some parts of the facial images may be affected. However, such approaches may lose spatial information. In this study, a compromise feature extraction scheme is studied which extracts local features while preserving spatial information. The proposed scheme exploits an ensemble of classifiers where each member is constructed using randomly selected design parameters including the size, number and location of sub-images for local feature extraction. Experiments conducted on FERET and ORL databases have shown that proposed scheme surpasses the local feature-based reference systems which focus on either local information or preserving spatial information. |
