Face recognition method

A face recognition method characterized by comprising the process steps of;

• Training a CNN-based feature extractor,
• Transmitting a face image of a masked or non-masked person taken by a camera to a processor,
• Smoothing and resizing the face image taken by the camera,
• Cropping occlusion-free regions in the resized image followed by converting RGB images to grayscale,
• Extracting image attributes by CNN-based feature extractor and quantizing deep covariance matrices into code books when the occlusion free regions are extracted and converted to grayscale images,
• Detecting the name of the person in the image by using a code book histogram in an SVM classifier for classification,
• Determining whether the person detected in the image is allowed to enter or not, all of which are run on the processor.
