Abstract :
In this paper, an efficient face recognition system based on luminance distribution by using maximum likelihood method is proposed. We observe the distribution of the luminance components of the face region and use maximum likelihood scheme to recognize the face. The experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve higher recognition rate efficiently.
