Rule-based face detection in frontal views
نویسندگان
چکیده
Face detection is a key problem in building automated systems that perform face recognition. A very attractive approach for face detection is based on multiresolution images (also known as mosaic images). Motivated by the simplicity of this approach, a rule-based face detection algorithm in frontal views is developed that extends the work of G. Yang and T.S. Huang. The proposed algorithm has been applied to frontal views extracted from the European ACTS M2VTS database that contains the videosequences of 37 different persons. It has been found that the algorithm provides a correct facial candidate in all cases. However, the success rate of the detected facial features (e.g. eyebrows/eyes, nostrils/nose, and mouth) that validate the choice of a facial candidate is found to be 86.5 % under the most strict evaluation conditions.

A novel fuzzy rule base system for pose independent faces detection
Human face detection plays an important role in a wide range of applications such as face recognition, surveillance systems, video tracking applications, and image databasemanagement. In this paper, a novel fuzzy rule-based system for pose, size, and position independent face detection in color images is proposed. Subtractive clustering method is also applied to decide on the numbers of members...
متن کاملCollaborative Face Orientation Detection in Wireless Image Sensor Networks
Most face recognition and tracking techniques employed in surveillance and human-computer interaction (HCI) systems rely on the assumption of a frontal view of the human face. In alternative approaches, knowledge of the orientation angle of the face in captured images can improve the performance of techniques based on non-frontal face views. In this paper, we propose a collaborative technique f...
متن کاملSupport vector machine based multi-view face detection and recognition
Detecting faces across multiple views is more challenging than that in a fixed view, e.g. frontal view, owing to the significant non-linear variation caused by rotation in depth, self-occlusion and self-shading. To address this problem, a novel approach is presented in this paper. The view sphere is separated into several small segments. On each segment, a face detector is constructed. We expli...

Purpose: Different views of an individuals’ image may be required for proper face recognition. Recently, discrete cosines transform (DCT) based method has been used to synthesize virtual views of an image using only one frontal image. In this work the performance of two different algorithms was examined to produce virtual views of one frontal image. Materials and Methods: Two new meth...
