Non Binary Local Gradient Contours for Face Recognition
As the features from the traditional Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Local Directional Patterns (LDP) are found to be ineffective for face recognition, we have proposed a new approach derived on the basis of Information sets whereby the loss of information that occurs during the binarization is eliminated. The information sets expand the scope of fuzzy sets by connecting the attribute and the corresponding membership function value as a product. Since face is having smooth texture in a limited area, the extracted features must be highly discernible. To limit the number of features, we consider only the non overlapping windows. By the application of the information set theory we can reduce the number of feature of an image. The derived features are shown to work fairly well over eigenface, fisherface and LBP methods.
