Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Template-matching methods to detect the faces within images have been studied. Two-dimensional Harr-like transform is performed to extract the features on the segmented templates and the images under test, and their correlation is computed. Three candidates were proposed for the feature-correlation procedures between the templates and the images by using : 1) the absolute values, 2) the absolute values plus the orientation and 3) the absolute values plus the orientation with a weak freedom of the mutual position of the segments, which we call 'Self-Adaptive Segment'. The relationship between the correlation intensity and the detection rate or the correctness has been estimated for each method against nearly frontal faces in the images. As a result, it is shown that high-detection rates are realized over wider range of facial pose from the pure frontal view by using the procedure of 3). This procedure could be implemented onto the parallel architecture rather smoothly, so the real-time face detection in the motion pictures would be available by a dedicated parallel processor.
