Adaboost is widely used for Haar-like feature boosting algorithm in Face Detection. It shows very effective performance on single distribution model. But when detecting front and side face images at same time, Adaboost shows it's limitation on multiple distribution data because it uses linear combination of basic classifier. This paper suggest the HDCT, modified decision tree algorithm for Haar-like features. We still tested the performance of HDCT compared with Adaboost on multiple distributed image recognition.

Terrain classification is still a challenging issue in image processing, especially with high resolution satellite images. The well-known obstacles include low accuracy in the detection of targets, especially for the case of man-made structures, such as buildings and roads. In this paper, we present an efficient approach to classify and detect building footprints, foliage, grass and road from high resolution grayscale satellite images. Our contribution is to build a strong classifier using AdaBoost based on a combination of co-occurrence and Haar-like features. We expect that the inclusion of Harr-like feature improves the classification performance of the man-made structures, since Haar-like feature is extracted from corner features and rectangle features. Also, the AdaBoost algorithm selects only critical features and generates an extremely efficient classifier. Experimental result indicates that the classification accuracy of AdaBoost classifier is much higher than that of the conventional classifier using back propagation algorithm. Also, the inclusion of Harr-like feature significantly improves the classification accuracy. The accuracy of the proposed method is 98.4% for the target detection and 92.8% for the classification on high resolution satellite images.

In this paper, a system that detects driver's drowsiness has been implemented based on the automatic extraction and the tracking of pupils. The research also focuses on the compensation of illumination and reduction of background noises that naturally exist in the driving condition. The system, that is based on the principle of Haar-like feature, automatically collects data from areas of driver's face and eyes among the complex background. Then, it makes decision of driver's drowsiness by using recognition of characteristics of pupils area, detection of pupils, and their movements. The implemented system has been evaluated and verified the practical uses for the prevention of driver's drowsiness.

영상 혹은 이미지 내에서 특정 물체를 검출하기 위한 일반적인 방법으로 비올라 존스(Viola-Jones) 알고리즘을 많이 사용하고 있으나 이 방법은 배경의 픽셀이 거의 동일한 값일 때에는 매우 높은 검출률을 보이는 반면 다양한 배경과 물체가 복합적으로 이루어져 있는 이미지의 경우에는 물체 검출 시 오인식 할 가능성이 매우 높다. 이러한 단점들은 얼굴 인식 시스템을 개발함에 있어 매우 불리하게 적용될 수 있는데, 본 연구는 얼굴인식 출입통제 시스템을 개발하는 과정에서 발생하는 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위하여 비올라 존스 알고리즘에서 이용되는 하 라이크 피춰(Harr-like feature)에 새로운 형태의 사각 특징(Rectangular feature) 및 분산 특징(Varience feature) 추가하여 복잡한 배경에서도 물체 검출 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we propose the drowsiness detection method for car driver. This paper determines whether or not the driver's eyes are closed using the depth and infrared videos. The proposed method has the advantage to detect drowsiness without being affected by illumination. The proposed method detects a face in the depth picture by using the fact that the nose is closest to the camera. The driver's eyes are detected by using the extraction of harr-like feature within the detected face region. This method considers to be drowsiness if eyes are closed for a certain period of time. Simulation results show the drowsiness detection performance for the proposed method.
