Abstract

Face image is one of the most important parts of human body. It is easily use for identification process. People naturally identify one another through face images. Due to increase rate of insecurity in our society, accurate machine based face recognition systems are needed to detect impersonators. Face recognition systems comprise of face detector module, preprocessing unit, feature extraction subsystem and classification stage. Robust feature extraction algorithm plays major role in determining the accuracy of intelligent systems that involves image processing analysis. In this paper, pose invariant feature is extracted from human faces. The proposed feature extraction method involves decomposition of captured face image into four sub-bands using Haar wavelet transform thereafter shape and texture features are extracted from approximation and detailed bands respectively. The pose invariant feature vector is computed by fusing the extracted features. Effectiveness of the feature vector in terms of intra-person variation and inter-persons variation was obtained from feature plots
