Abstract:
This paper introduces the Hidden Markov Tree (HMT) of the
ranklet transform as a new face recognition and verification
system. The HMT has been used in modeling the face images
where the ranklet transform serve as features. The proposed
system is evaluated on a large database of people obtaining
highly competitive and promising results.
Keywords:
Face Recognition, Face Verification, Hidden Markov Tree,
Ranklet Transform.
