Fusion of Two Novel Local Descriptors for Face Recognition in Distinct Challenges

This work suggests the 2 LBP variants so-called Neighborhood Difference LBP (ND-LBP) and Neighborhood Mean LBP (NM-LBP). In ND-LBP, the comparison is conducted among the neighbor pixels line up along the clockwise direction and in NM-LBP, the neighbors are compared with its mean. The launched descriptors utilizes the new concept as compared to LBP. In LBP, the surrounding neighbors are compared to center pixel. The histograms build from ND-LBP and NM-LBP are amalgamated for constructing the size of discriminant face descriptor so-called ND-LBP+NM-LBP. PCA is processed next for the size compaction and the 2 classifiers owned for matching are SVMs and NN. The datasets on which evaluation is carried out are ORL and GT. The ND-LBP+NM-LBP descriptor brings off splendid results than many other descriptors in MATLAB R2018a. On ORL and GT, the maximum rates attained are 96% and 86.33% by using the RBF (SVM) classifier.
