효과적인 뉴스 검색을 위한 얼굴 영역의 추출

The retrieval techniques of multimedia contents have been developed along with MPEG-7. But as human being distinguishes objects with the eyesight, researches for high retrieval efficiency applied a high level computer vision technology are difficult because of the increase of processing time caused by complexity of algorithm, and the difficulty of an implementation. In this paper, for an effective news retrieval using the human face information, we suggest a method which extracts face information like as location, size and number of the face in the news video, and then we prove the validity of method by experiment.
