Abstract: This paper develops a new image feature extraction and recognition method coined bidirectional compressed nuclear-norm based 2DPCA (BN2DPCA). BN2DPCA presents a sequentially optimal image compression mechanism, making the information of the image compact into its up-left corner. BN2DPCA is tested using the Extended Yale B and the CMU PIE face databases. The experimental results show that BN2DPCA is more effective than N2DPCA, B2DPCA, LPP and LDA for face feature extraction and recognition.
