Two observations:
Different face recognition tasks (i.e., identification and verification) have different performance metrics. Direct optimization of the recognition performance scores may result in performance gain. Consistent appearance incoherences between the gallery and the probe data for the same subject could be used to guide the algorithm design, resulting in performance gain.
Notation
Optimal Subspace for Face Verification (OSFV) Face verification: verify whether two face images are from the same person or not. Performance metrics
false alarm rate (FAR):
Generate an ROC curve by sorting the distance scores Obtain the decision threshold that minimizes the verification error on the ROC curve Computational complexity: O(n log n), where n is the number of matchings.

Conclusion
There exists different optimal face subspaces for different face recognition tasks. There could exists consistent appearance incoherences in the gallery and the probe set in real-world applications. Performance gains could be obtained by taking into consideration the differences of the performance score definitions of the different tasks and the intrinsic appearance incoherences between the gallery images and the probe images of the same subject.
