Abstract

Face recognition technology, as a biometric recognition technology, is very mature and has many applications. It achieves in-depth applications in smart campus systems, such as classroom attendance, classroom behavior analysis, and smart restaurants. Using human faces as the face data foundation, computer vision and image processing technologies are applied to research and implement face recognition. Based on the principal component analysis (PCA) theory, this paper analyzed the characteristics of face data, studied the face recognition algorithm. Considering the LBP and SVM algorithm, an improved PCA face recognition algorithm was proposed. Through comparative experiments, the results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the accuracy of face recognition.
