Dimension reduction algorithms have attracted a lot of attentions in face recognition because they can select a subset of effective and efficient discriminative features in the face images. Most of dimension reduction algorithms can not well model both the intra-class geometry and interclass discrimination simultaneously. In this paper, we introduce the Discriminative Hessian Eigenmaps (DHE), a novel dimension reduction algorithm to address this problem. DHE will consider encoding the geometric
