When given a small sample, we show that classification with SVM can be considerably enhanced by using a kernel function learned from the training data prior to discrimination. Thi...
Many researches in face recognition have been dealing with the challenge of the great variability in head pose, lighting intensity and direction,facial expression, and aging. The m...
