Multiclass Pattern Recognition of Facial Images using Correlation Filters

Pattern Recognition comes naturally to humans and there are many pattern recognition tasks which humans can perform admirably well. However, human pattern recognition cannot compete with machine speed when the number of classes to be recognized becomes tremendously large. In this paper, we analyze the effectiveness of correlation filters for pattern classification problems. We have used Distance Classifier Correlation Filter (DCCF) for pattern classification of facial images. Two essential qualities of a correlation filter are distortion tolerance and discrimination ability. DCCF transposes the feature space in such a way that the images belonging to the same class gets closer and the images from different class moves far apart; thereby increasing the distortion tolerance and the discrimination ability. The results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach for face recognition applications.
