摘要
In this paper, we show how to extract gender discriminating features from 2.5D facial needle-maps. The standard eigenspace analysis method for non-Euclidean data is principal geodesic analysis (PGA). Based on PGA, we propose a novel supervised weighted PGA method which incorporates local weights into standard PGA to improve gender discriminating capability of the extracted features: The weight map is iteratively optimized from the labeled data, which is different from other gender relevant weights used in the literature [1]. Experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of this method and its successful application to gender classification.
