Research Project :- Automatic Human Face Detection and Localization
Automatic Detection and Localization of Human Faces in scenes with no prior information about scale, orientation and viewpoint.
Image sequences
Here are some image sequences in MPEG showing the results of the face detector. No visual tracking were used.
- Sequence 1 Image sequence of a face moving in strong illumination.
- Sequence 2 Image sequence of a face moving in saturated camera constrast.
- Sequence 3 Simultaneous detection of more than one face in the image.
- Sequence 4 Detection of a hand drawn face.
