Face Recognition Technology

Eigenfaces for Recognition

Download now Matlab source code
Requirements: Matlab, Matlab Image Processing Toolbox.

Research on automatic face recognition in images has rapidly developed into several inter-related lines, and this research has both lead to and been driven by a disparate and expanding set of commercial applications. The large number of research activities is evident in the growing number of scientific communications published on subjects related to face processing and recognition.
