چکیده مقاله:

Detecting faces in cluttered backgrounds and real world has remained as an unsolved problem yet. In this paper, by using composition of some kind of independent features and one of the most common appearance based approaches, and multilayered perceptron (MLP) neural networks, not only some questions have been answered, but also the designed system achieved better performance rather than the previously presented works. The designed face detection algorithm is composed of two main stages; in the first stage of the algorithm, color based skin detection is performed using some selected color space components from the whole 15 color space components in order to reduce the search space and in the second one, verification of detected regions is done using some other kinds of different features including texture, gradient, image and geometric features. Unlike the other studied issues, in this paper, various types of features aren't evaluated in separated algorithms and systems; rather they compete all together in one competitive learning vector and after the training of the neural network the system participates in the process of feature selection. Using designed method and besides of dimensional reduction of input matrix extraordinarily, each chosen feature was ranked.

A Classification Method for E-mail Spam Using a Hybrid Approach for Feature Selection Optimization

Spam is an unwanted email that is harmful to communications around the world. Spam leads to a growing problem in a personal email, so it would be essential to detect it. Machine learning is very useful to solve this problem as it shows good results in order to learn all the requisite patterns for classification due to its adaptive existence. Nonetheless, in spam detection, there are a large num...

Face Detection with Effective Feature Extraction

There is an abundant literature on face detection due to its important role in many vision applications. Since Viola and Jones proposed the first real-time AdaBoost based face detector, Haar-like features have been adopted as the method of choice for frontal face detection. In this work, we show that simple features other than Haar-like features can also be applied for training an effective fac...

A Hybrid Feature Extraction Approach for Face Recognition Systems

Automatic recognition of individuals is a significant problem in the field of pattern recognition. The face images considered for recognition undergo large variations due to changes in illumination conditions, viewing direction, facial expression and aging etc. The face images also have similar geometrical features and hence discriminating one face from the other in the database is a challengin...

A Hybrid Approach to Human Face Detection

Face detection is the problem of determining whether a subwindow of an image contains a face or not.The rapidly expanding research in face processing is based on the premise that information about a user’s identity, state, and intent can be extracted from images, and that computers can then react accordingly. This hybrid face detection system is combination of two methods i.e. Feature Extractio...
