Abstract

Face recognition with illumination varying conditions and occlusions is one of the most important challenges in the field of digital image processing. Despite of the fact that a number of studies (Patel & Yagni, 2013; Azeem, Sharif, Raza & Murtaza, 2014) have improved the accuracy of different techniques by normalizing and compensating the illumination variations using some pre-processing methods, a lot of these methods are still facing many serious challenges with illumination changes and occlusion. In this paper, we suggest the use of tow pre-processing methods that will have a great impact on the performance and the robustness of the recognition procedures in case small sample size (SSS) as the training set.
