Firstly, all face images are partitioned into several blocks and the approach performs 2DPCA process to project the blocks onto the face spaces. Then, LR is used to obtain the residuals of every block by representing a test image as a linear combination of class-speci c galleries. Lastly, three minimum residuals of every block and fuzzy similarity preferred ratio decision method are applied to make a classi cation. The proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art methods and demonstrates strong robustness under various illumination, pose and occlusion conditions on several face databases.
