Hello Young,
Let us explain more about the paper under consideration:
- It is a comparative analysis of the following methods toward face
recognition:
- Eigen Face
- PCA Square
- SPCA
- SPCA+
At the end of the paper, the authors had proved that SPCA+ is the best algorithm
for facial recognition, based on the accuracy. But they had also proved that for
smaller images the accuracy is upwards in the list of above algos.
The paper however, does not mention the details of each method and is very
abstract in the same. One must refer to the citations of the paper to get proper
details. The answer to your question is that you are surely missing to read the
references for each method there.

do imshow(P) to show the image.
