Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is one of the most used feature extraction techniques for face recognition. However, it often suffers from the small sample size problem with high dimension setting. Random Subspace Method (RSM) is a popular combining technique to improve weak classifier. Nevertheless, it remains a problem how to construct an optimal random subspace for discriminant analysis. In this paper, we propose an improved random sampling LDA for face recognition. Firstly, AdaBoost is adopted to select Gabor feature and remove redundant information. Secondly, in the selected Gabor feature space, we combine principal component analysis and RSM approaches to construct optimal random subspaces for LDA. After that, direct LDA (D-LDA) and R-LDA is applied in each subspace, respectively. Final results are obtained by combining all the LDA classifiers using a fusion rule. Experiments with both the ORL and FERET face databases demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method, and it shows promising results compared with previous approaches.
