| TITLE | Thermal Face Recognition using Principal Component Analysis |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | This study proposes a method to improve face recognition performance by using thermal images along with Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In thermal-based recognition, infrared sensors record the unique heat patterns generated by the human face, allowing accurate identification even in darkness or visually challenging conditions. PCA is applied to reduce the dimensionality of these images, ensuring that essential facial information is retained while removing redundant data. The experimental results indicate that the approach remains effective under varying illumination, facial expressions, and head positions. Overall, the outcomes demonstrate that PCA can significantly enhance the reliability and security of thermal-image-based biometric systems. |
