Towards Practical Face Recognition System Employing Row-Based Distance Method In 2dpca Based Algorithms
Automatic face recognition has been a focus research topic in past few decades. This is due to the advantages of face recognition and the potential need for high security in commercial and law enforcement applications. However, due to nature of the face, it is subjected to several variations. Thus,...
