본 논문에서는 스테레오 영상의 정합값(matching)을 통한 얼굴 특징추출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서는 얼굴색상 정보의 RGB컬러공간을 YCbCr컬러공간으로 변환하여 얼굴영역 검출하였다. 추출된 얼굴영역으로부터 눈 형판(template)을 적용하여 눈 사이의 거리와 기울어짐, 코와 입에 대한 특징의 기하학적인 특징 벡터를 추출하였다. 또한 제안한 방법은 2차원 특징정보 뿐만 아니라 스테레오 영상의 정합을 통한 얼굴의 눈, 코, 입의 특징을 추출할 수 있었다. 실험을 통하여 약 1m이내 거리에서 73%의 일치율을 보였고, 약 1m이후 거리에선 52%의 일치율을 보였다.

Human face detection has many applications such as face recognition, face or facial feature tracking, pose estimation, and expression recognition. We present a new method for automatically segmentation and face detection in color images. Skin color alone is usually not sufficient to detect face, so we combine the color segmentation and shape analysis. The algorithm consists of two stages. First, skin color regions are segmented based on the chrominance component of the input image. Then regions with elliptical shape are selected as face hypotheses. They are certificated to searching for the facial features in their interior, Experimental results demonstrate successful detection over a wide variety of facial variations in scale, rotation, pose, lighting conditions.

얼굴검출 작업에서 다양한 형태를 가지는 후보영역을 정사하기 위한 기하학적 연산과정이 수반된다. 본 논문에서는 컬러영상에서 색도 분포 특성을 이용함으로써 얼굴가림과 방향에 영향을 받지 않고 얼굴 유효특징점을 검출할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 얼굴의 특징점 주변에서 Cb와 Cr이 일관적인 색도차를 가진다는 점에 착안한 것으로써, 기본 색도차 영상인 Eye맵 마스크에서 특징점을 효과적으로 강조시킬 수 있는 평균-그레이 모폴로지 연산을 수행한다. 실험을 통해, 제안한 방법이 가변적 형태의 후보영역에 대해서도 강인하게 얼굴의 유효특징점을 검출할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents an approach to visual information based temporal indexing of video sequences. The objective of this work is the integration of an automatic face detection and a matching system for video indexing. The face detection is done using color information. The matching stage is based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) followed by the Minimax Probability Machine (MPM). Using PCA one feature vector is calculated for each face which is detected at the previous stage from the video sequence and MPM is applied to these feature vectors for matching with the training faces which are manually indexed after extracting from video sequences. The integration of the two stages gives good results. The rate of 86.3% correctly classified frames shows the efficiency of our system.

This study proposed a robust detection algorithm. It detects face more stably with respect to changes in light and rotation forthe identification of a face shape. The proposed algorithm uses face shape asinput information in a single camera environment and divides only face area through preprocessing process. However, it is not easy to accurately recognize the face area that is sensitive to lighting changes and has a large degree of freedom, and the error range is large. In this paper, we separated the background and face area using the brightness difference of the two images to increase the recognition rate. The brightness difference between the two images means the difference between the images taken under the bright light and the images taken under the dark light. After separating only the face region, the face shape is recognized by using the self-organization feature map (SOFM) algorithm. SOFM first selects the first top neuron through the learning process. Second, the highest neuron is renewed by competing again between the highest neuron and neighboring neurons through the competition process. Third, the final top neuron is selected by repeating the learning process and the competition process. In addition, the competition will go through a three-step learning process to ensure that the top neurons are updated well among neurons. By using these SOFM neural network algorithms, we intend to implement a stable and robust real-time face shape recognition system in face shape recognition.

Sleep mode detection is a significant power management and green computing feature. However, it is difficult for televisions and smart TVs to detect deactivation events because we can use these devices without the assistance of an input device. In this paper, we propose a robust method for smart TVs to detect deactivation events based on a visual combination of face and motion detection. The results of experiments conducted indicate that the proposed method significantly reduces incorrect face detection and human absence by means of motion detection. The results also show that the proposed method is robust and effective for smart TVs to reduce power consumption.

Viola와 Jones의 객체 검출 알고리즘은 대표적인 얼굴 검출 알고리즘이다. 알고리즘은 얼굴 표현을 위해 하르-유사 특징들을 사용하고 분류를 위해 약분류기들의 선형 조합인 강분류기들로 구성된 cascade-Adaboost 알고리즘을 사용하고 있다. 이 알고리즘은 구현을 위해 몇 개의 변수 설정을 요구하고 설정된 값들이 알고리즘 성능에 영향을 준다. 본 논문은 알고리즘에 설정되는 변수에 따른 얼굴 검출 성능을 분석한다.

This paper presents a method for real-time face detection and tracking which combined Adaboost and Camshift algorithm. Adaboost algorithm is a method which selects an important feature called weak classifier among many possible image features by tuning weight of each feature from learning candidates. Even though excellent performance extracting the object, computing time of the algorithm is very high with window size of multi-scale to search image region. So direct application of the method is not easy for real-time tasks such as multi-task OS, robot, and mobile environment. But CAMshift method is an improvement of Mean-shift algorithm for the video streaming environment and track the interesting object at high speed based on hue value of the target region. The detection efficiency of the method is not good for environment of dynamic illumination. We propose a combined method of Adaboost and CAMshift to improve the computing speed with good face detection performance. The method was proved for real image sequences including single and more faces.

In this paper, we propose a rotation invariant face detection method using Haar-like feature variation. Previous approaches using rectangular features can be calculated very fast. But rectangular features is weak in rotated face. Rotated Haar-like features can get high accuracy, but the performance is slow because it can't use the integral image. Our method vary Haar-like features keeping rectangular. this method makes the performance a bit slow, but gives better accuracy.
