This paper presents the possibilities of applying the Support Vector Machines (SVM) in the process of automatic human face recognition. It is described how the existing methods of face recognition can be improved by the SVM. Moreover, a new approach to the multi-method fusion utilising the SVM is proposed. Usefulness of all the methods described in the paper improving the face recognition effectiveness by the SVM is confirmed by the experimental results.
