III. COMBINING
Firstly, the face images can be divided into two classes named intrapersonal pairs and interpersonal pairs.
Weight Learning for Component Classifiers
Secondly, for each image pair, a similarity vector can be obtained.
Last step, two classes of the N–dimensional samples are fed into FLD to get an optimal linear projection from N-D to 1-D.

Gabor feature are more sensitive to the detailed local variations.

IV. RESULTThe performance improvement becomes trivial when the number of LCCs exceeds 30.
The performance of LEC is much better than that of the individual LCC (especially on Experiment 4).
