Abstract

We propose a novel method, the complete twodimensional principal component analysis (complete 2DPCA), for image features extraction. Compared to the original 2DPCA, complete 2DPCA not only gain a higher recognition rate, but also reduce the feature coefficients needed for face recognition. Complete 2DPCA is based on 2D image matrices. Two image covariance matrices are constructed directly using the original image matrix and theirs eigenvectors are derived for image feature extraction. Our experiments were performed on ORL face database, and experimental results show that the proposed method has an encouraging performance.
