Eigenfaces Demo

What

This is an eigenfaces demo written in the Octave/Matlab language to go along with a recent blog post.

Features

• Given a dataset of faces (the cropped version of the Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW) dataset), this demo computes and visualizes the eigenfaces, and shows the effect of projecting and recovering the original faces using these eigenfaces.
