An improved classifier based on nearest feature line

Abstract

An improved classifier based on nearest feature line, is proposed in this paper. The new classifier is called as limited nearest feature line (LNFL). The purpose of LNFL is to improve the miss-classification of nearest feature line when the prototypes in NFL are far away from the query sample. A lot of experiments are executed on ORL and AR face database. And the detailed comparison result is given to show that LNFL is better than nearest feature line and nearest neighbor.
