Abstract
Plurality voting is widely employed as combination strategies in pattern recognition. As a technology proposed recently, sparse representation based classification codes the query image as a sparse linear combination of entire training images and classifies the query sample class by class exploiting the class representation error. In this paper, an improvement face recognition approach using sparse representation and plurality voting based on the binary bit-plane images is proposed. After being equalized, gray images are decomposed into eight bit-plane images, sparse representation based classification is exploited respectively on the five bit-plane images that have more discrimination information. Finally, the true identity of query image is voted by these five identities obtained. Experiment results shown that this proposed approach is preferable both in recognition accuracy and in recognition speed.
