Face detection is the task of determining the locations and sizes of human faces in arbitrary digital images, while ignoring any other objects to the greatest possible extent. A fundamental problem in computer vision, it has important applications in fields ranging from surveillance-based security to autonomous vehicle navigation. Although face detection has been studied for almost a decade, the results are not satisfactory for a variety of practical applications, and the topic continues to receive attention.
A commonly used approach for detecting faces is based on the techniques of "boosting" and "cascading", which allow for real-time face detection. However, systems …
