first applied this classifier to face detection. Support Vector Machines are linear classifiers that maximise the margin between the decision hyperplane and the examples in the training set. have been faced successfully by Neural Networks. Many detection problems like object detection, face detection, emotion detection, and face recognition, etc. There is a trained classifier, which correctly identifies instances of the target pattern class from the background image patterns. The algorithms like PCA and Fisher’s Discriminant can be used to define the subspace representing facial patterns. The appearance-based model further divided into sub-methods for the use of face detection which are as follows- 4.1.Eigenface-Based:-Įigenface based algorithm used for Face Recognition, and it is a method for efficiently representing faces using Principal Component Analysis. This method also used in feature extraction for face recognition. In general appearance-based method rely on techniques from statistical analysis and machine learning to find the relevant characteristics of face images. The appearance-based approach is better than other ways of performance. The appearance-based method depends on a set of delegate training face images to find out face models. However, deformable templates have been proposed to deal with these problems. This approach is simple to implement, but it is inadequate for face detection. Also, a face model can be built by edges just by using edge detection method. Ex- a human face can be divided into eyes, face contour, nose, and mouth. Template Matching method uses pre-defined or parameterised face templates to locate or detect the faces by the correlation between the templates and input images. This approach divided into several steps and even photos with many faces they report a success rate of 94%. The idea is to overcome the limits of our instinctive knowledge of faces. It is first trained as a classifier and then used to differentiate between facial and non-facial regions. The feature-based method is to locate faces by extracting structural features of the face.
This approach alone is insufficient and unable to find many faces in multiple images. There could be many false positive if the rules were too general or too detailed. The big problem with these methods is the difficulty in building an appropriate set of rules. Ex- A face must have a nose, eyes, and mouth within certain distances and positions with each other. The knowledge-based method depends on the set of rules, and it is based on human knowledge to detect the faces. These categories are as follows-ĭifferent types of Face Detection Methods 1.Knowledge-Based:. These methods divided into four categories, and the face detection algorithms could belong to two or more groups. Yan, Kriegman, and Ahuja presented a classification for face detection methods. Facebook is also using face detection algorithm to detect faces in the images and recognise them.
It is widely used in cameras to identify multiple appearances in the frame Ex- Mobile cameras and DSLR’s.
It is used to detect faces in real time for surveillance and tracking of person or objects. It is a part of object detection and can use in many areas such as security, bio-metrics, law enforcement, entertainment, personal safety, etc. In recent times, a lot of study work proposed in the field of Face Recognition and Face Detection to make it more advanced and accurate, but it makes a revolution in this field when Viola-Jones comes with its Real-Time Face Detector, which is capable of detecting the faces in real-time with high accuracy.įace Detection is the first and essential step for face recognition, and it is used to detect faces in the images. The primary aim of face detection algorithms is to determine whether there is any face in an image or not. Object detection is one of the computer technologies, which connected to the image processing and computer vision and it interacts with detecting instances of an object such as human faces, building, tree, car, etc.
The method of face detection in pictures is complicated because of variability present across human faces such as pose, expression, position and orientation, skin colour, the presence of glasses or facial hair, differences in camera gain, lighting conditions, and image resolution. According to its strength to focus computational resources on the section of an image holding a face. Face detection can consider a substantial part of face recognition operations. In the past few years, face recognition owned significant consideration and appreciated as one of the most promising applications in the field of image analysis.
