Face recognition and subject verification. In
a first approach, we show that the external features encoded in the NMF coefficients yield
enough useful information for classification purposes. Then we compare the information
contributed by the external features and the internal features. Finally, the last step is to
combine the information provided by the external and the internal features. We show that
both kinds of information are complementary, providing and extra information cue that can
improve the classification results in presence of occlusions and local changes in the
illumination. |
