Abstract The current methods for ear recognition are discussed, and locally linear embedding (LLE) is employed to deal with multi-pose ear recognition. An improved locally linear embedding algorithm is presented. The improved LLE algorithm selects the neighbors according to the Hsim function, thus the instability of the neighbors in the higher dimensional space is well avoided. Experimental results demonstrate that LLE is feasible for multi-pose recognition and it has obvious advantages. Moreover, the improved LLE obtains a better recognition rate for multi-pose ear recognition.
