Using matlab to build face recognition

Hi, I am newbie in MATLAB and i would like to do a face recognition in my final year project. Is it possible to use a webcam to analysis eyes and also nose to compare the database whether it is matched or not? Or have any better suggestions ? This is because I don't have any idea to start it. Thanks

Sure, but isn't the school year almost up? How much time do you have to this final project? Go here to find a promising algorithm: http://iris.usc.edu/Vision-Notes/bibliography/contentspeople.html#Face%20Recognition,%20Detection,%20Tracking,%20Gesture%20Recognition,%20Fingerprints,%20Biometrics

yes. Now i need to improve its accuracy. Then, I only has 30 weeks to do it. Thanks a lot.
