pca.cpp

An example using PCA for dimensionality reduction while maintaining an amount of variance

*
* This program demonstrates how to use OpenCV PCA with a
* specified amount of variance to retain. The effect
* is illustrated further by using a trackbar to
* change the value for retained varaince.
*
* The program takes as input a text file with each line
* begin the full path to an image. PCA will be performed
* on this list of images. The author recommends using
* the first 15 faces of the AT&T face data set:
* http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/dtg/attarchive/facedatabase.html
*
* so for example your input text file would look like this:
*
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s1/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s2/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s3/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s4/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s5/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s6/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s7/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s8/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s9/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s10/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s11/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s12/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s13/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s14/1.pgm
* <path_to_at&t_faces>/orl_faces/s15/1.pgm
