Abstract

We present a scheme for the optical implementation of human-face recognition with only an incoherent optical correlator. The system uses complementary-encoding hit-miss transform method to improve the performance of the standard correlator. According to this method, we have built up a compact system for human-face optical recognition. We have built a face library in which 96 photographs are stored and the recognition speed of the system is 8 pictures per second.
