Abstract

In this paper we propose a new face recognition method based on the weightless neural network system [1]. The algorithm uses 5-pixel n-tuples to map images, which passes through a ranking transform to obtain a binary n-tuple state. A digital neural network correlates the recurring states obtained from the current input pattern to those extracted from the test set. The data used in this paper is from the MIT-CBCL facial database [2], and the training data and testing data set each consist of 10 individual persons, with 100 examples of each subject. An error rate of 0.1% FAR and 0.1% FRR was achieved on data which was totally independent of the training set.
