Abstract

In this paper, we proposed an autoassociative Radial Basis Function (RBF) network and applied it with a modular structure to human face recognition. To capture the substantial facial features and reduce computational complexity, we propose to use wavelet transform (WT) to decompose face images and choose the lowest resoluation sub-band coefficients for face representation. Results indicate that out scheme yields accurate recognition on the widely use XM2VTS face database and Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL) face database.
