Abstract
A feature extraction technique for face verification is proposed. It utilises polynomial coefficients derived from 2D discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients of neighbouring blocks. Experimental results suggest that the technique is more robust against illumination direction changes than 2D Gabor wavelets, 2D DCT and eigenface methods. Moreover, compared to Gabor wavelets, the proposed technique is over 80 times quicker to compute.
