  • Abstract
    In this paper, two new methods: ECA and 2DECA are proposed for face recognition, which are inspired by KECA. In ECA (2DECA), features are selected in PCA (2DPCA) subspace based on the Renyi entropy contribution instead of cumulative variance contribution. Then the proposed methods are tested on the OLR, YALE and XM2VTS databases respectively. We also compare the performance of the related methods experimentally.
