Abstract Since there is only one sample for each subject, it is hard to describe intra-class variations of the subject. The performance of state-of-the-art face recognition algorithms declines in one sample per person(OSPP) face recognition. In this paper, an OSPP face recognition algorithm based on deep autoencoder(OSPP-DA) is proposed. In OSPP-DA, deep autoencoder is trained by all the images in the gallery firstly, and a generalized deep autoencoder(GDA) is generated. Then, the GDA is fine-tuned by the single sample of the subject, and a class-specified deep autoencoder(CDA) is obtained. For classification, query images are input to CDAs and the reconstruction samples of the corresponding subjects have the same intra-class variation as query images. A Softmax regression model is trained by the reconstruction samples and the query images are identified by the Softmax regression model. Experiments on public testing database are conducted and the results show the validity of OSPP-DA. Compared with some state-of-the-art algorithms, the proposed algorithm produces better performance with less time.
