A kernelized sparsity-based approach for best spectral bands selection for face recognition by Bouchech, H.J.

“…We formulate best spectral bands selection as a pursuit optimization problem wherein the vector of weights determining the importance of each visible spectral band is supposed to be sparse, and hence can be determined by minimizing its L1-norm. Several fusing approaches are then applied on selected best spectral bands using multi-scale and multi-orientation Gabor wavelets. …”
