Implementation of Principal Component Analysis on Masked and Non-masked Face Recognition

This paper represents an implementation of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) on masked and non-masked face recognition. Security is an essential term in our today's life. In various Biometric technology, face recognition is widely used to secure any system because it is better than any other traditional techniques like PIN, password, fingerprint etc. and most reliable to identify or verify a person efficiently. In recent years, face recognition is a very challenging task because of different occlusion or masks like the existence of sunglasses, scarves, hats and different types of make-up or disguise ingredients. The accuracy rate of face recognition is influenced by these types of masks. Many algorithms have been developed recently for non-masked face recognition which are widely used…
