Nonparametric Discriminant Analysis (NDA) possesses inherent advantages over Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) such as capturing the boundary structure of samples and avoiding matrix inversion. In this paper, we present a novel method for constructing an updated Nonparametric Discriminant Analysis (NDA) model for face recognition. The proposed method is applicable to scenarios where bursts of data samples are added to the existing model in random chunks. Also, the samples which degrade the performance of the model need to be removed. For both of these problems, we propose incremental NDA (INDA) and decremental NDA (DNDA) respectively. Experimental results on four publicly available datasets viz. AR, PIE, ORL and Yale show the efficacy of the proposed method. Also, the proposed method requires less computation time in comparison to batch NDA which makes it suitable for real time applications.
