Abstract
In this paper, the authors propose a method of identifying individuals using fractal coding facial image. There is a method by using the facial information as one of the methods for identifying individuals. These methods had problems in the sense that precise identifications are difficult unless the direction of faces or the distance between the camera and faces are fixed accurately. On the other hand, the fractal coding technique attracts a great deal of attention of researchers because it is an image compressing technique utilize geometric redundancy in the image. The compressed data with fractal coding is a set of parameters of affine mapping. Therefore, we think that the effective data for identifying the faces is obtained by parameters fracatal coding.
