Abstract

Limitations on the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) for face recognition, such as the loss of generalization and the computational infeasibility, are addressed and illustrated for small number of samples. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) followed by the LDA mapping may be an alternative that can overcome this limitation. We also show that processing time is reduced by wavelet transform.
