Improvement in Recognition Rate by Using Linear Regression with Principal Component Analysis

Tanvi Ahuja, Vinit Agarwal

Abstract: In this paper we propose a face recognition system which use the combination of Regression and PCA (Principal Component Analysis). We use regression for classification of eigen vectors generated and PCA for extraction of facial features. The results obtained are more accurate than the previous approaches.
