Summary: | In this paper, a novel face recognition technique based on discrete wavelet transform and Adaptive Local Binary Pattern (ALBP) with directional statistical features is proposed. The proposed technique consists of three stages: preprocessing, feature extraction and recognition. In preprocessing and feature extraction stages, wavelet decomposition is used to enhance the common features of the same subject of images and the ALBP is used to extract representative features from each facial image. Then, the mean and the standard deviation of the local absolute difference between each pixel and its neighbors are used within ALBP and the nearest neighbor classifier to improve the classification accuracy of the LBP. Experiments conducted on two virtual world avatar face image datasets show that our technique performs better than LBP, PCA, multi-scale Local Binary Pattern, ALBP and ALBP with directional statistical features (ALBPF) in terms of accuracy and the time required to classify each facial image to its subject. |
