This MATLAB script implements Karhunen-Loeve decomposition which is classical algorithm for face recognition and detection. Script uses ATT faces database http://www.uk.research.att.com/facesataglance.html
which can be downloaded from
http://www.uk.research.att.com/facedatabase.html
Computing Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of images set
Encoding Face Images with a Linear Combination Key (KL decomposition)
Decoding a Key into an Image (reconstruction)
Comparing images using key, searching for similar images.
