LDA is a single-exemplar method in the sense that each class during classification is represented by a single exemplar, i.e., the sample mean of the class. We present a multiple-exemplar discriminant analysis (MEDA) where each class is represented using several exemplars or even the whole available sample set. The proposed approach produces improved classification results when tested on a subset of FERET database where LDA is ineffective.}, keywords = {analysis;, database;, databases;, discriminant, Face, FERET, multiple-exemplar, recognition;, visual}, doi = {10.1109/ICPR.2004.1333736}, author = {Zhou,S.
