Hi, I'm new at the forum. Sorry for my english because I´m spanish and I don't speak very well.

I´m programming a face recongnition system. The sistem consist off 4 different algorithms of another persons and my work is to incorporate this algorithms to a GUI.
One of this algorithms calls several .mat files and the compilation is very slow. (around 6 minutes with 3 users registered, 13 minutes with 4 users registered) and I have to register more users in the system. The other methods take about 5 seconds to search the users in the database. The difference is very big.
This method works with the SVM (support vector machine) and use the [i]libsvm[/i] libraries. My teacher of this project tells me that probably the libraries are the problem, because in the pc of the original programmer of this algorithm, it probably worked well but not in my pc due to the libraries work different depending on conditions.
I downloaded the last version of [i]libsvm[/i] libraries and replaced the files. I saw it took a little less time, but not too much.
My Matlab version is 7.8.0.(R2009a). I downloaded the Matlab 2012 but the result was the same.

Can anybody help me?
Thank you!!
