Faces recognition example using eigenfaces and SVMsΒΆ
The dataset used in this example is a preprocessed excerpt of the “Labeled Faces in the Wild”, aka LFW:
Expected results for the top 5 most represented people in the dataset:
| Ariel Sharon | 0.67 | 0.92 | 0.77 | 13 |
| Colin Powell | 0.75 | 0.78 | 0.76 | 60 |
| Donald Rumsfeld | 0.78 | 0.67 | 0.72 | 27 |
| George W Bush | 0.86 | 0.86 | 0.86 | 146 |
| Gerhard Schroeder | 0.76 | 0.76 | 0.76 | 25 |
| Hugo Chavez | 0.67 | 0.67 | 0.67 | 15 |
| Tony Blair | 0.81 | 0.69 | 0.75 | 36 |
| avg / total | 0.80 | 0.80 | 0.80 | 322 |
