Abstract EN
Face recognition has become a very active field of biometrics.
Different pictures of the same face might include various changes of expressions, poses, and illumination.
However, a face recognition system usually suffers from the problem that nonsufficient training samples cannot convey these possible changes effectively.
The main reason is that a system has only limited storage space and limited time to capture training samples.
Many previous literatures ignored the problem of nonsufficient training samples.
In this paper, we overcome the insufficiency of training sample size problem by fusing two kinds of virtual samples and the original samples to perform small sample face recognition.
The two used kinds of virtual samples are mirror faces and symmetrical faces.
Firstly, we transform the original face image to obtain mirror faces and symmetrical faces.
Secondly, we fuse these two kinds of virtual samples to achieve the matching scores between the test sample and each class.
Finally, we integrate the matching scores to get the final classification results.
We compare the proposed method with the single virtual sample augment methods and the original representation-based classification.
The experiments on various face databases show that the proposed scheme achieves the best accuracy among the representation-based classification methods.
