2. Propose an argument or thesis statement for your research paper (in one to three sentences).
3. Provide a list of scholarly sources you plan to consult for the research paper. Include a complete citation for each source you use.
o For books: include the author, title, location, publisher, and date of publication.
o For articles, include the author, article or chapter title, journal name or book title, and name of the editor, if applicable. Also include the date, page numbers, and journal volume and issue.

4. List your proposed primary sources (if any) for the Research Paper.
5. Note potential research difficulties (if any) and your plans for overcoming them.
6. Project the date you will submit Assignment 4: Research Paper.

Submit your Research Paper Proposal using this online drop box.
Your tutor will review your assignment and return it to you with comments and recommendations. You are advised not to begin writing Assignment 4: Research Paper until you have received your tutor’s feedback on Assignment 2: Research Paper Proposal.
However, do continue researching your topic. It is quite likely that your tutor will recommend further sources for you to investigate, and you will probably discover more sources on your own. The transition from the research stage of your paper to the planning and writing stage should occur over several weeks. At some point, you will determine that you have done enough research and are ready to develop your own perspectives on your topic. When that happens, begin planning your Research Paper (Assignment 4).

 

Sample Solution

are used frequently and are most known in the literature, i.e. Eigenface Method, Correlation Method, Fisherface Method and the Linear Subspaces Method. But how do these facial recognition work? Because of word limitations, only one of those four facial recognition techniques, i.e The Eigenface Method, will be discussed. Hopefully this will give an general idea of how facial recognition works and can be used.

One of the major difficulties of facial recognition, is that you have to cope with the fact that a person’s appearance may change, such that the two images that are being compared differentiate too much from each other. Also environmental changes in pictures, like lightning, have to be taken into account, in order to have successful facial recognition. Thus from a picture of a face, as well as from a live face, some yet more abstract visual representation must be established which can mediate recognition despite the fact that in real life the same face will hardly ever form an identical image on successive occasions. Our ability to do this shows that we can derive structural codes for faces, which capture those aspects of the structure of a face essential to distinguish it from other faces[6].

One of the four most famous facial recognition methods is the Eigenface Method. This method focuses on the aspects of the face stimulus that are important for identification. This is done by decoding face images into significant local and global ‘features’[24]. Such features may or may not be directly related to our intuitive notion of face features such as the eyes, nose, lips and hair. Scientists Matthew Turk and Alex Pentland [24] developed a computer system for the eigenface approach which works as following: “In the language of information theory, we want to extract the relevant information in a face image, encode it as efficiently as possible, and compare one face encoding with a database of
