Abstract :
We developed an EBGM-based algorithm that successfully implements face recognition under constrained conditions. A suitable adaptation of the Gabor filters was found through a power spectral analysis (PSD) of the face images. We outperformed the best-known implementations of the EBGM algorithm in the FERET database. The results are comparable with those of the state of the art.
