You can use the subfigure environment from subcaption, and redefine \thesubcaption:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\renewcommand\thesubfigure{\thefigure.\alph{subfigure}}
\DeclareCaptionLabelFormat{plain}{#2}
\captionsetup[subfigure]{labelformat = plain}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}[htb]
\centering
    \begin{subfigure}{0.3\textwidth}
        \centering
        \includegraphics[width=0.9\textwidth]{AliceSteadman}
        \caption{\label{fig:Alice1}}
    \end{subfigure}
\hfill
    \begin{subfigure}{0.3\textwidth}
        \centering
        \includegraphics[width=0.9\textwidth]{AliceSteadman}
        \caption{\label{fig:Alice2}}
    \end{subfigure}
\hfill
    \begin{subfigure}{0.3\textwidth}
        \centering
        \includegraphics[width=0.9\textwidth]{AliceSteadman}
        \caption{\label{fig:Alice3}}
    \end{subfigure}
    \caption{}
    \label{fig:Alice}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

i tried ur answer but i getting this error: ! Package subcaption Error: This package can't be used in cooperation – Elpharaoh Oct 30 '16 at 16:05
In cooperation with what? You're probably loding the obsolete package subfigure, or subfig? – Bernard Oct 30 '16 at 16:14

i am using \usepackage{subfig} and i need it because i have the following :\begin{figure} [H] \centering

\subfloat[Without EKF]{{\includegraphics[width=6cm]{4_no_EKF_marked} }}%
\qquad
\subfloat[With EKF]{{\includegraphics[width=6cm]{4_EKF_marked} }}%

\caption{Comparison between the vehicle position derived from the GNSS sensor and the vehicle position derived from EKF filter}%
\label{fig:Accuracy of Positioning}

\end{figure}

But you also can do that with the subfigure environment. – Bernard Oct 30 '16 at 16:36
