Abstract
The view-classification accuracy achieved is about 93% (42/45); and that for the eye-glasses recognition is conservatively estimated at about 95% (18-19/19), with one false-positive (9.1%) out of eleven cases without eyeglasses. Many profiles and half-profiles, eyeglasses with glares or dark spectacles, beards and/or mustaches, and very faint feature contrast due to very dark complexions or weak lighting, etc., have been analyzed well.
