Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel online learning method called Multi-Eigenspace Learning which can learn appearance models incrementally from a given video stream. For each subject, we try to learn a few eigenspace models using IPCA (Incremental Principal Component Analysis). In the process of Multi-Eigenspace Learning, each eigenspace generally contains more and more samples except one eigenspace which contains the least number of samples. Then, these learnt eigenspace models are used for video-based face recognition. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve high recognition rate.
