Face detection and recognition is the first step for many applications in various fields such as identification and is used as a key to enter into the various electronic devices, video surveillance, and human computer interface and image database management. This paper focuses on feature extraction in an image using Gabor filter and the extracted image feature vector is then given as an input to the neural network. The neural network is trained with the input data. The Gabor wavelet concentrates on the important components of the face including eye, mouth, nose, cheeks. The main requirement of this technique is the threshold, which gives privileged sensitivity. The threshold values are the feature vectors taken from the faces. These feature vectors are given into the feed forward neural network to train the network. Using the feed forward neural network as a classifier, the recognized and unrecognized faces are classified. This classifier attains a higher face deduction rate. By training more input vectors the system proves to be effective. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the experimental results.
