Large pose invariant face recognition using feature-based recurrent neural network

Cellular Simultaneous Recurrent Network (CSRN) is a novel bio-inspired recurrent neural network that mimics reinforcement learning in the brain. CSRN has been proven to be a powerful tool for learning and predicting temporal information in face image sequences. In this work, we propose a novel implementation of feature-based CSRN for large-scale pose invariant face recognition. We also report systematic evaluation and performance comparison of our feature-based CSRN method with other well-known standard algorithms (PCA, LDA, Bayesian Classifier and EBGM) using face recognition technology standards for large-scale pose invariant face recognition.
