Recognizing faces with normalized local Gabor features and Spiking Neuron Patterns

Gabor Wavelets (GW) have been extensively used for facial feature representation due to its inherent multi-resolution and multi-orientation characteristics. In this work we extend the work on Local Gabor Feature Vector (LGFV) and propose a new face recognition method called LGFV//LN//SNP, which empl...
