Discriminant analysis, face recognition, featureextraction, graph-based embedding, local discriminant embedding (LDE), small-sample-size (SSS) problem

A robust face recognition system for unconstrained environment was developed using ELDE algorithm. In this algorithm, LBPfeatures were extracted for the blurred, illuminated, expressionvariated probe image. Every image in the gallery set wastransformed using optimal TSF and their LBP features wereextracted. A simple pre-processing step, FER was carried outand the reconstructed face images have been used for furtherprocessing. LBP features of transformed image and blurredprobe image were compared to find the best match.It was observed that for ELDE algorithm, when Cropped Yale was used, the recognition rate obtained was 81.986% and for Yale face dataset, 87.88%. It was observed that for ELDE used, the recognition rate noticed was 82% and for Yale facedataset, 67.996%. The system works effortlessly and is robustto conditions like blur, illumination and expressions. The results were improved when expression was removed.
