Abstract

Considering the serial strategy generally used in feature fusion easily leads to curse of dimensionality and two-dimensional matrix for image representation outperforms one-dimensional vector, a novel strategy of parallel complex-matrix-based horizontal and vertical discriminant analysis is developed in this paper. It first respectively utilizes two different images of a subject as the real and imaginary part of a complex matrix, two-step discriminant analysis, namely horizontal LDA and vertical PCA, is then performed in the complex feature space. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is more promising and effective.
