Face recognition system using DCT features implemented on DSP processor

Face recognition is a challenge because the faces always change due to facial expression, direction, light, and scale. Furthermore, it needs good computing techniques for recognition in order to reduce the system’s complexity. Our approach focuses on the local feature extraction in the frequency do...
