approach using hybrid face features descriptors (HFFD). The HFFD is a face descriptor containing of rich discriminant information that is created by fusing some frequency-based features extracted using both wavelet and DCT analysis of several different poses of 2D face images. The main aim of this method is to represent the multi-pose face images using a dominant frequency component with still ...

Face recognition system is a computer application for automatically identifying or verifying a person from a digital image from a source. One of the ways to do this is by comparing selected facial features from the image and a facial database. Face recognition involves three steps: Face Detection, Feature Extraction and Matching. Face detection method detect face area from the image using Viola...

The approach based on the mathematical morphology and the variational calculus is presented for the detection of an exact face contour in still grayscale images. The facial features (eyes and lips) are detected by using the mathematical morphology and the heuristic rules. Using these features an image is filtered and an edge map is prepared. The face contour is detected by minimizing its intern...
