The Face Recognition Method Based on CS-LBP and DBN

الملخص EN

At present, the face recognition method based on deep belief network (DBN) has advantages of automatically learning the abstract information of face images and being affected slightly by active factors, so it becomes the main method in the face recognition area.

Because DBN ignores the local information of face images, the face recognition rate based on DBN is badly affected.

To solve this problem, a face recognition method based on center-symmetric local binary pattern (CS-LBP) and DBN (FRMCD) is proposed in this paper.

Firstly, the face image is divided into several subblocks.

Secondly, CS-LBP is used to extract texture features of each image subblock.

Thirdly, texture feature histograms are formed and input into the DBN visual layer.

Finally, face classification and face recognition are completed through deep learning in DBN.

Through the experiments on face databases ORL, Extend Yale B, and CMU-PIE by the proposed method (FRMCD), the best partitioning way of the face image and the hidden unit number of the DBN hidden layer are obtained.

Then, comparative experiments between the FRMCD and traditional methods are performed.

The results show that the recognition rate of FRMCD is superior to those of traditional methods; the highest recognition rate is up to 98.82%.

When the number of training samples is less, the FRMCD has more significant advantages.

Compared with the method based on local binary pattern (LBP) and DBN, the time-consuming of FRMCD is shorter.
