  2. Agenda • Introduction • Principle Component Analysis (PCA) • Eigenfaces for Recognition

  3. Introduction • A method introduced by Turk and Pentland from MIT in 1991. • Uses Principle Component Analysis(PCA) as a mathematical framework.

  4. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) • What is it? • It is a powerful tool for analysing data. • Patterns in data can be hard to find in complex data, or in high dimension. • PCA reduces a complex data set to a lower dimension. • and identifies patterns in data, highlights their similarities and differences.

  5. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) • The goal of PCA is to find the most meaningful basis to re-express a data set. • PCA asks: Is there another basis, which is a linear combinationof the original basis, that best re-expresses our data set? • Uses variance and covariance for this goal.

  6. PCA - Mathematical Foundations • The covariance measures the degree of the linear relationship between two variables. • If positive, positively correlated data. • If negative, negatively correlated data. • If zero, uncorrelated data. • The absolute magnitude of covariance measures the degree of redundancy.

  7. PCA - Mathematical Foundations • The covariance matrix shows the relationship between higher dimensions. • If n dimensions, it is a nxn matrix. • It is a square symmetric matrix. • The diagonal terms are the variances, and off-diagonal terms are covariances. • The off-diagonal terms large magnitudes correspond to high redundancy.

  8. PCA - Mathematical Foundations • Our goals re-stated: • (1) minimize redundancy, measured by the magnitude of covariance. • (2) maximize the signal, measured by the variance. • Diagonalize the covariance matrix! • This means: Decorrelate data!

  9. PCA - Mathematical Foundations • The Diagonalization of Covariance Matrix: • All off-diagonal terms should be zero, or say another way, data is decorrelated. • Each successive dimension should be rank-ordered according to variance (large variances have important structure.)

  10. A little linear algebra... • Some crucial theorems from linear algebra for PCA work: • A matrix is symmetric if and only if orthogonally diagonalizable. • A symmetric matrix is diagonalized by a matrix of its orthonormal eigenvectors.

  11. PCA - Mathematical Foundations • So, finally, • Find eigenvectors of covariance matrix! • Order them by eigenvalue, highest to lowest (gives order of significance). • The eigenvector with the highest eigenvalue is the principle component.Second, third principles etc. • Ignore the components of lesser significance.

  12. PCA - Conclusion • Results: • The final data set will have less dimensions than the original. • Aligned data in a basis with the axis of maximal variance (find another direction along which variance is maximized). • Rank-ordering each basis vector according to the corresponding variances show how ‘principal’ each direction.

  13. Discussion of PCA • Principal components with larger associated variances show important, interesting structure, while those with lower variances represent noise. This is a strong but sometimes incorrect assumption. • The goal of the analysis is to decorrelate the data, or say in other terms, is to remove second-order dependencies in the data. In the data sets of higher dependencies exist, it is insufficient at revealing all structure in the data.

  14. Eigenfaces for Recognition • Simply think of it as a template matching problem:

  15. Computation of the Eigenfaces • Let Γis an N2x1 vector, corresponding to the NxN face image Ι. • Step1: obtain face images Ι1, Ι2,.... ΙM(training faces) • Step2: represent every image Ιi as a vector Γi

  16. Computation of the Eigenfaces • Step3: compute the average face vector Ψ : • Step4: subtract the mean face:

  17. Computation of the Eigenfaces • Step5: compute the covariance matrix C • Step6: compute the eigenvectors uiof AAT:

  18. Computation of the Eigenfaces • The matrix AATis very large  impractical! • Consider the matrix ATA(MxM matrix) and compute the eigenvectors of ATA. • The eigenvectors of ATA are also the best M eigenvectors of AAT. • They correspond to M EIGENFACES !! • Keep only K eigenvectors corresponding to the K largest eigenvalues.

  19. Recognition using eigenfaces • Given an unknown face image Γ , follow these steps: • Step1: normalize Γ : Φ = Γ – Ψ. • Step2: project onto the eigenspace

  20. Recognition using eigenfaces • Step3: represent Φ as: • Step4: Find face dist er = minl || Ω – Ωl || • Recognize Γ as face l from training set !!

  21. Discussion: Eigenfaces • Performance is affected from: • Background • Lighting conditions • Scale (head size) • Orientation
