Study and Implementation of Face Detection Algorithm Using Matlab

摘要

Face detection is an important field that is becoming more and more important as its applications are increasing. Today, face detection is used in a lot of different technologies such as photography, video surveillance, and most importantly in facial recognition. This paper presents an understanding of the Viola Jones algorithm for face detection along with its components: Haar features, integral image, AdaBoost algorithm, cascading classifier and its implementation with the help of MATLAB computer vision toolbox.
