Baseline Avatar Face Detection using an Extended Set of Haar-like Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is desirable to address accessibility issues within virtual worlds. Moreover, curbing criminal activities within virtual worlds is a major concern to the law enforcement agencies. Forensic investigators and accessibility researchers are gaining considerable interests in detecting and tracking avatars as well as describing their appearance within virtual worlds. Leinhart and Maydt have introduced a novel-set of Haar like features by extending the Viola Jones approach towards rapid object detection. We test this Haar cascade on human and avatar faces. Accuracy rates of 79% on human and 74% on avatar faces are obtained. The goal is to detect avatar faces in upright frontal face datasets and establish a baseline for future work in computer generated face recognition.

An extended set of Haar-like features for rapid object detection
Recently Viola et al. [5] have introduced a rapid object detection scheme based on a boosted cascade of simple features. In this paper we introduce a novel set of rotated haar-like features, which significantly enrich this basic set of simple haar-like features and which can also be calculated very efficiently. At a given hit rate our sample face detector shows off on average a 10% lower false ...
متن کاملOptical Character Recognition through Character-set Dependent Probabilities
While optical character recognition is field where machine learning algorithms are easily applied, it might not always be cost effective to do so. While Viola and Jones explored Haar features in their face detection algorithm, selecting from the thousands of features is quite time consuming. This paper compares their feature set with a baseline of pixel learners as well as another set of Haar f...
متن کاملFace Detection Based on Multi-Block LBP Representation
Effective and real-time face detection has been made possible by using the method of rectangle Haar-like features with AdaBoost learning since Viola and Jones’ work [12]. In this paper, we present the use of a new set of distinctive rectangle features, called Multi-block Local Binary Patterns (MB-LBP), for face detection. The MB-LBP encodes rectangular regions’ intensities by local binary patte...

Face detection is an essential step in many computer vision applications like surveillance, tracking, medical analysis, facial expression analysis etc. Several approaches have been made in the direction of face detection. Among them, Haar-like features based method is a robust method. In spite of the robustness, Haar like features work with some limitations. However, with some simple modificati...
متن کاملA Multi-Viewpoint Human Tracking Based on Face Detection Using Haar-like Features and a Mean-Shift Tracker
Human tracking is an important function for an automatic surveillance system using a vision sensor. However, it is difficult to identify a human exactly in an image due to the variety of poses. This paper describes a method for automatic human tracking based on face detection using Haar-like features and mean-shift tracking. The method increases its trackability by using multi-viewpoint images....
