چکیده

Most face detection algorithms locate faces by classifying the content of a detection window iterating over all positions and scales of the input image. Recent developments have accelerated this process up to real-time performance at high levels of accuracy. However, even the best of today’s computational systems are far from being able to compete with the detection capabilities of the human visual system. Psychophysical experiments have shown the importance of local context in the face detection process. In this paper we investigate the role of local context for face detection algorithms. In experiments on two large data sets we find that using local context can significantly increase the number of correct detections, particularly in low resolution cases, uncommon poses or individual appearances as well as occlusions.
