Abstract

In this paper, an improved classifier based on the concept of feature line space, called as adaptively nearest feature point classifier (ANFP) is proposed for face recognition. ANFP classifier uses the new metric, called as adaptively feature point metric, which is different from metrics of NFL and the other classifiers. ANFP gain better performance than NFL classifier and some others classifiers based on feature line space, which is proved by the experiment result on Yale face database.
