            Abstract : 
Face recognition methods are computationally very expensive and use too much memory and processing time. An example of a method that allocates many computer resources is the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In order to reduce processing time, was developed in this paper a method using only genetic algorithms to perform face recognition and comparison in the PCA method obtains higher accurate rates and less processing time.
