A Geometric Approach to Face Detector Combining
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a method of combining face detectors is proposed, which is based on the geometry of the competing face detection results. The main idea of the method consists in finding groups of similar face detection results obtained by several algorithms and further averaging them. The combination result essentially depends on the number of algorithms that have fallen in each of the groups. The experimental evaluation of the method is based on seven algorithms: Viola-Jones (OpenCV 1.0), Luxand c ⃝ FaceSDK, Face Detection Library, SIFinder, Algorithm of the University of Surrey, FaceOnIt, Neurotechnology c ⃝ VeriLook. The paper contains practical results of their combination and a discussion of future improvements.

In this paper, a smile and laugh facial expression is presented based on dimension reduction and description process of the key points. The paper has two main objectives; the first is to extract the local critical points in terms of their apparent features, and the second is to reduce the system’s dependence on training inputs. To achieve these objectives, three different scenarios on extractin...
متن کاملNovel Face Detection Method Based on Gabor Features
Gabor-based Face representation has achieved great success in face recognition, while whether and how it can be applied to face detection is rarely studied. This paper originally investigates the Gabor feature based face detection method, and proposes a coarse-to-fine hierarchical face detector combining the high efficiency of Harr features and the excellent discriminating power of the Gabor fe...

Standard face recognition algorithms that use standard feature extraction techniques always suffer from image performance degradation. Recently, singular value decomposition and low-rank matrix are applied in many applications,including pattern recognition and feature extraction. The main objective of this research is to design an efficient face recognition approach by combining many tech...
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...
متن کاملThinking Inside the Box: Using Appearance Models and Context Based on Room Geometry
In this paper we show that a geometric representation of an object occurring in indoor scenes, along with rich scene structure can be used to produce a detector for that object in a single image. Using perspective cues from the global scene geometry, we first develop a 3D based object detector. This detector is competitive with an image based detector built using state-of-the-art methods; howev...
