Linear Discriminant Regression Classification for Face Recognition

To improve the robustness of the linear regression classification (LRC) algorithm, in this paper, we propose a linear discriminant regression classification (LDRC) algorithm to boost the effectiveness of the LRC for face recognition. We embed the Fisher criterion into the LRC as a novel discriminant regression analysis method. The LDRC attempts to maximize the ratio of the between-class reconstruction error (BCRE) over the within-class reconstruction error (WCRE) to find an optimal projection matrix for the LRC such that the LRC on that subspace can achieve a high discrimination for classification. Then, the projected coefficients are executed by the LRC for face recognition. Extensive experiments carried out on the FERET and AR face databases show that the LDRC performs better than the related regression based algorithms and shows a promising ability for face recognition.
