3.4 Computational Complexity Analysis
The first three steps of the proposed system can be per- formed using only simple image processing tools such as image resizing, filtering and point selection. The last step can be done using only simple and tiny arithmetic. Both are fully computationally non-intensive operations.
The proposed system is examined on a heterogeneous dataset collected for real world experiment environment.
It can be observed evidently that the performance of the proposed system is better than existing systems in broad perspectives.

ONCLUSIONThis system is based on new features selection for hand geome- try based personal verification systems. This systems is very much user friendly and convenient to implement. The system is peg free and images can be captured by a normal scanner. Or- ganizer need not to manage a high image captured instrument or pegged scanner so it can be implemented in where any time.
User can place his/her hand in any orientation less than 45 de- gree along vertical axis. Generally a large number of feature decrease the performance of computation here only one set of feature vector (nine features) are used which improves the computational efficiency. One special contribution of this sys- tem is that it can detect actual valley points although there is a small gap between tips of two fingers. This system runs on hand
with nailed finger accurately. The remarkable achievement ob- tained from the proposed method is the result of verification, which is best among the prevailing techniques of hand geome- try based verification system. The system showed promising results with accuracy around 99.98%. The FRR is found to be close to 0.02 and the FAR to be around 0.02.
The proposed approach utilizes primarily the geometry of the hand and work on colored images. If a grayscale image is uti- lized for the system, then databases search will take a short time and decreases computational time more. If the system works properly when a user placed his/her hand in any angle, it will be more users friendly. The use of neural network based classifier trained on a larger database may result in further improvement of the system accuracy.

Human Emotion Recognition Using PCA, ICA and NMF
Paresh Chandra Barman, Chandra Shekhar Dhir, Soo-Young Lee
Abstract—Recognizing human facial expression and emotion by computer is an interesting and challenging problem. In this paper, Principal component analysis (PCA), independent component analysis (ICA) and Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) are exploited for feature extraction of face images. The features are low-dimensional representation of the original multivariate high dimensional data with minimal loss in data representation [1]. In addition, the features are also required to give good class discrimination for recognition experiments. Feature selection based on information gain criterion has been studied for finding efficient features to improve the classification performance of face recognition tasks [2]. This work presents a detailed study on the application of information gain for efficient feature selection and is compared with Fisher criterion. Individual, emotion recognition experiments using face images of Korean nationals are performed to compare the two feature selection criteria (Information gain and Fisher criterion). The face images of Korean nationals are obtained from the Postech Faces ’01 (PF01) database [3].
Keywords—Human emotion recognition, NMF, PCA, ICA.

NTRODUCTIONUMAN-computer intelligent interaction (HCII) is an emerging field of science aimed at providing natu- ral ways for humans to use computers as aids. It is argued that for the computer to be able to interact with humans, it needs to have the communication skills of humans. One of these skills is the ability to understand the emotional state of the person. The most expressive way humans display emotions is through facial expres- sions. In recent years there has been a growing interest in improving all aspects of the interaction between humans and computers. Faces are much more than keys to indi- vidual identity. Human beings possess and express emo- tions in day to day interactions with others.
The problem of handling facial images for recognition is also due to the large pixel size and demands on computa- tional resources. Therefore, several researchers have ex- ploited linear low-dimensional representation of images using orthogonal basis by Principal component analysis (PCA) and independent features using Independent com- ponent analysis (ICA). ICA is a multivariate approach of data representation with statistically independent fea- tures [5]. It has also found wide applications in the field on blind source separation. In [15] Cauchy Naive Bayes Classifier has been used for emotion recognition.
Face recognition using eigenfaces was one of the prelimi- nary works in the field of face recognition using low di- mensional features [6]. While ICA and NMF give more local representation of data, PCA features are global. Al-
though, feature extraction methods helps in low- dimensional representation of multivariate data by using unsupervised methods, all the feature may not be impor- tant for classification. Hence, the features extracted give a good data representation and the next task is to select proper features for good classification performance. Va- riance of features and Fisher criterion (between class va- riance over within class variance) has been widely used for selection of features for classification [7]. Variance of feature gives an estimate of the power of the features that can be considered important. Recently, feature selection criterion based on information gain to face images is stu- died for efficient feature selection and improving classifi- cation performance [2].
A comparative study on the performances of the features will be done on feature selection criterion based on in- formation gain to facial images is studied for efficient feature extraction and improving classification perfor- mance. Information gain criterion is extensively studied in the field of text categorization [8]. The motivation to apply information gain was to maximize the information between the class and the given features. Since, the ICA features are independent we can get a score value for each feature based on information gain and a proper number of features can be selected. However, in case of PCA and NMF features which are dependent this crite- rion in its crude form cannot be applied. The information gain criterion presented in the paper does not consider the dependency among features which may be present in case of PCA and NMF features.
In section II, feature extraction using PCA, ICA and NMF are discussed. Section III concentrates on feature selection using Fisher criterion and proposed information gain for application to face recognition. Experimental setup is pre- sented in section IV followed by results in section V. Sec-

tion V1 discusses the experimental results followed by conclusions.
A brief overview on the two dataset used is given below:
In this paper we utilize the publicly available Postech Faces ’01 (PF01) *3+ face database. PF01 has 56 males’ fac- es with 4 emotions of each, and the resolution is 150150.
The four different emotion categories are: Smile, Surprised, Sad and Closed eyes as shown in figure1. There are 168 training samples per class, 56 test samples per class. We used 4 fold cross-validations for recognition process.

ETHODSClassification of emotion images with high resolution is a difficult problem and is computationally demanding if no pre-processing is done on the raw images. In an at- tempt to reduce the computational burden several effi- cient feature extraction methods have been studied. PCA is a well known method in image processing and has been widely used to extract meaningful features. Working on same philosophy, ICA and NMF are also used for representing low dimension feature space.
