AN EFFECTIVE COLOR FACE RECOGNITION BASED ON BEST COLOR FEATURE SELECTION ALGORITHM USING WEIGHTED FEATURES FUSION SYSTEM

This paper aims to achieve the best color face recognition performance. The newly introduced feature selection method takes advantage of novel learning which is used to find the optimal set of color-component features for the purpose of achieving the best face recognition result. The proposed color face recognition method consists of two parts namely color-component feature selection with boosting and color face recognition solution using selected color component features. This method is better than existing color face recognition methods with illumination, pose variation and low resolution face images. This system is based on the selection of the best color component features from various color models using the novel boosting learning framework. These selected color component features are then combined into a single concatenated color feature using weighted feature fusion. The effectiveness of color face recognition method has been successfully evaluated by the public face databases.
