%0 Journal Article %T 3-D Face Recognition Using Improved 3D Mixed Transform %A Mr. Hamid M. Hasan %A Prof. Dr. Waleed A. AL.Jouhar %A Dr. Majid A. Alwan %J International Journal of Biometric and Bioinformatics %D 2012 %I Computer Science Journals %X This paper deals with the using of Improved 3D Mixed Transform (3D-IMT) for face recognitionproblem. The mixed transform consists Fourier based 3D radon transform plus 1-D Wavelettransform (which is also known as 3D Ridgelet transform). The Mixed Transform is improved byusing the Particle swarm optimization ( PSO) technique. The improvement involves the selectionof the best of directions for smart rectangle-to-polar transform as a part of the 3D RadonTransformation. The 3D-IMT is applied to the 3D representation of face images, and yields a fewnumber of features, these features is projected into the maximized projection that achieves goodrecognition rate using the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). %K Face Recognition %K 3-D Radon Transform %K Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) %K Wavelet Transform %K Linear Discriminate Analysis (LDA) . %U http://cscjournals.org/csc/manuscript/Journals/IJBB/volume6/Issue1/IJBB-143.pdf
