The recognition rate and speed of face recognition systems have always been the two key technical factors that researchers focus on. Many excellent recognition algorithms achieve high recognition rates or good recognition speeds. However, more research is needed to develop algorithms that can effectively balance these two indicators. In this study, we introduce an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm into a face recognition algorithm based on image feature compensation techniques. This allows the system to achieve high recognition rates while simultaneously enhancing the recognition efficiency, aiming to strike a balance between the two aspects. This approach provides a new perspective for the application of image feature compensation techniques in face recognition systems. It helps achieve a broader range of applications for face recognition technology by reducing the recognition speed as much as possible while maintaining a satisfactory recognition rate. Ultimately, this leads to an improved user experience.
