Face detection is a computer technology being used in a variety of applications that identifies human faces in digital images.〔https://facedetection.com/〕 Face detection also refers to the psychological process by which humans locate and attend to faces in a visual scene.〔DOI: 10.1002/ima.10040〕 == Definition and related algorithms == Face detection can be regarded as a specific case of object-class detection. In object-class detection, the task is to find the locations and sizes of all objects in an image that belong to a given class. Examples include upper torsos, pedestrians, and cars. Face-detection algorithms focus on the detection of frontal human faces. It is analogous to image detection in which the image of a person is matched bit by bit. Image matches with the image stores in database. Any facial feature changes in the database will invalidate the matching process. A reliable face-detection approach based on the genetic algorithm and the eigen-face〔http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=628712&tag=1〕 technique: Firstly, the possible human eye regions are detected by testing all the valley regions in the gray-level image. Then the genetic algorithm is used to generate all the possible face regions which include the eyebrows, the iris, the nostril and the mouth corners. Each possible face candidates is normalized to reduce lightning effect caused due to uneven illumination and the shirring effect due to head movement. The fitness value of each candidate is measured based on its projection on the eigen-faces. After a number of iterations, all the face candidates with a high fitness value are selected for further verification. At this stage, the face symmetry is measured and the existence of the different facial features is verified for each face candidate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Face detection」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
