Main Article Content
Comparative analysis of selected facial recognition algorithms
Abstract
Systems and applications embedded with facial detection and recognition capabilities are founded on the notion that there are differences in face structures among individuals, and as such, we can perform face-matching using the facial symmetry. A widely used application of facial detection and recognition is in security. It is important that the images be processed correctly for computer-based facial recognition, hence, the usage of efficient, cost-effective algorithms and a robust database. This research work puts these measures into consideration and attempts to determine a cost-effective and reliable algorithm out of three algorithms examined.
