| Abstract(in English) | Face detection is a useful technique in computer vision. Many face detectors have been developed in the literature. Almost all approaches for face detection focus on the face detectors which classify a given sub-window into face or non-face. However, in face detection process, since the detectors also evaluate the scanned sub-windows independently, non-faces with high face likelihood are often misdetected. In this paper, we propose a novel face detection algorithm which explicitly uses difference of face likelihood distribution between faces and non-faces. The proposed algorithm can correctly classify the non-faces misdetected by the existing algorithm. The face likelihood distribution is generated and integrated to emphasize the difference between faces and non-faces. Experiments with pre-scanned data set and real-world images show that the proposed algorithm improves the detection rate approximately by 20% and 10%, respectively. |
