چکیده

The paper proposes the application of majority voting on the output of several support vector machines in order to select the most suitable learning machine for frontal face detection. The first experimental results indicate a significant reduction of the rate of false positive patterns.

On the stability of support vector machines for face detection

In this paper we study the stability of support vector machines in face detection by decomposing their average prediction error into the bias, variance, and aggregation effect terms. Such an analysis indicates whether bagging, a method for generating multiple versions of a classifier from bootstrap samples of a training set, and combining their outcomes by majority voting, is expected to improv...

Face Recognition using Eigenfaces , PCA and Supprot Vector Machines

This paper is based on a combination of the principal component analysis (PCA), eigenface and support vector machines. Using N-fold method and with respect to the value of N, any person’s face images are divided into two sections. As a result, vectors of training features and test features are obtain ed. Classification precision and accuracy was examined with three different types of kernel and...

Hierarchical classification and feature reduction for fast face detection with support vector machines

We present a two-step method to speed-up object detection systems in computer vision that use support vector machines as classi ers. In the rst step we build a hierarchy of classi ers. On the bottom level, a simple and fast linear classi er analyzes the whole image and rejects large parts of the background. On the top level, a slower but more accurate classi er performs the nal detection. We pr...

A fast method for training support vector machines with a very large set of linear features

Current systems for object detection often use support vector machines (SVMs) as the basic classification algorithm. A rather common case is to compute a small set of linear features and then train the classifier on these features. We present a fast method to train and evaluate SVMs with many linear features and show results for face detection using a set of 210,400 features. The resulting clas...

Ensemble of Face/eye Detectors for Accurate Automatic Face Detection

In this work we propose a simple yet effective face detector that combines several face/eye detectors that possess different characteristics. Specifically, we report an extensive study for combining face/eye detectors that results in a final system we call FED that combines three face detectors that extract regions of candidate faces from an image with two approaches for eye detection: the enha...
