New Feature: Average Pixel Intensity
Hypothesis:
Considering the average intensity of non-background pixels in our face images should improve classification. In particular, variations in skin tone should make differentiation of black and white faces easier.

Result:
Using a multi-GLD classifier which: was trained on the augmented training data. used average pixel intensity to increase the dimensionality of the data. Class Hits Misses Accuracy Asian 18 8 69% Black 117 132 47% Hispanic 0 13 0% White 1439 260 85%
