Abstract: In [1] Karanwal et al. introduced the novel color descriptor in Face Recognition (FR) called as Fused Local Color Pattern (FLCP). In FLCP, the RGB color format is utilized for extracting features. From R, G and B channels, the MRELBP-NI, 6 × 6 MB-LBP and RD-LBP are imposed for feature extraction and then all are integrated to form the FLCP size. FLCP beats the accuracy of various methods. The one major shortcoming observed in [1] is that the basic format RGB is used for extracting features. Literature suggests that other hybrid formats achieves better recognition rates than RGB. Motivated from literature, the proposed work uses the hybrid color space format RCrQ for feature extraction. In this format R channel is taken from RGB, Cr channel is taken from YCbCr and Q channel is taken from YIQ. On R channel, MRELBP-NI is imposed for extracting features, On Cr channel 6 × 6 MB-LBP is imposed and on Q channel RD-LBP is imposed for extracting features. Then all channel features are joined to build the robust and discriminant feature called as Robust And Discriminant Local Color Pattern (RADLCP). Compression and matching is assisted from PCA and SVMs. For evaluating results GT face dataset is used. Results proves the potency of RADLCP in contrast to gray scale based implemented descriptors. RADLCP also beats the results of FLCP. Several literature techniques are also outclassed by RADLCP. For evaluating all the results MATLAB R2021a is used.
