The design of efficient algorithm for face recognition based on hybrid PCA-wavelet transform

الملخص EN

In modern times face recognition is one of the vital sides for computer vision.

This is due to many reasons involving availability and accessibility of technologies and commercial applications.

Face recognition in a brief statement is robotically recognizing a person from an image or video frame.

In this paper, an efficient face recognition algorithm is proposed based on the benefit of wavelet decomposition to extract the most important and distractive features for the face and Eigen face method to classify faces according to the minimum distance with feature vectors.

Faces94 data base is used to test the method.

An excellent recognition with minimum computation time is obtained with accuracy reaches to 100% and recognition time decreases to 87.5%.
