Abstract

A new approach based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM) face recognition is presented. Singular value decomposition is used to subtract the character of the face image. As a result, the amount of data storage and the computing time is reduced, and the recognition rate is increased. Experimental results are compared with other two HMM based methods.
