چکیده

Detecting faces in images is a key step in numerous computer vision applications as face recognition for example. Face detection is a difficult task in image analysis because of the large face intra-class variability which is due to the important influence of the environmental conditions on the face aspect. The existing methods for face detection can be divided into holistic methods and feature based methods. We propose a new method for detecting frontal faces in complex images featuring two main contributions: the use of a collection of highly discriminative anisotropic Gaussian features combined by boosting and the computation using a mixture of classifiers to improve the classification capabilities without affecting the detection speed. The performances of the face detector have been evaluated on the CMU/MIT test set [1] database. This methods outperforms the previous works in frontal face detection. keywords: face detection, AdaBoost, Gaussian features, mixtures of classifiers

Face Recognition by Cognitive Discriminant Features

Face recognition is still an active pattern analysis topic. Faces have already been treated as objects or textures, but human face recognition system takes a different approach in face recognition. People refer to faces by their most discriminant features. People usually describe faces in sentences like ``She's snub-nosed'' or ``he's got long nose'' or ``he's got round eyes'' and so like. These...

Improving 2D Boosted Classifiers Using Depth LDA Classifier for Robust Face Detection

Face detection plays an important role in Human Robot Interaction. Many of services provided by robots depend on face detection. This paper presents a novel face detection algorithm which uses depth data to improve the efficiency of a boosted classifier on 2D data for reduction of false positive alarms. The proposed method uses two levels of cascade classifiers. The classifiers of the first lev...

An Online Boosted People Counting System for Electronic Advertising Machines

This paper presents a novel people counting system for an environment in which a stationary camera can count the number of people watching a TV-wall advertisement or an electronic billboard without counting the repetitions in video streams in real time. The people actually watching an advertisement are identified via frontal face detection techniques. To count the number of people precisely, a ...

Local Boosted Features for Pedestrian Detection

The present paper addresses pedestrian detection using local boosted features that are learned from a small set of training images. Our contribution is to use two boosting steps. The first one learns discriminant local features corresponding to pedestrian parts and the second one selects and combines these boosted features into a robust class classifier. In contrast of other works, our features...

Intrusion Detection in IOT based Networks Using Double Discriminant Analysis

Intrusion detection is one of the main challenges in wireless systems especially in Internet of things (IOT) based networks. There are various attack types such as probe, denial of service, remote to local and user to root. In addition to known attacks and malicious behaviors, there are various unknown attacks that some of them have similar behavior with respect to each other or mimic the norma...
