The Face Detection Research Based on Multi-Scale and Rectangle Feature

Article Preview

Abstract:

When extracting the face image features based on pixel distribution in face image, there always exist large amount of calculation and high dimensions of feature sector generated after feature extraction. This paper puts forward a feature extraction method based on prior knowledge of face and Haar feature. Firstly, the Haar feature expressions of face images are classified and the face features are decomposed into edge feature, line feature and center-surround feature, which are further concluded into the expressions of two rectangles, three rectangles and four rectangles. In addition, each rectangle varies in size. However, for face image combination, there exist too much redundancy and large calculation amount in this kind of expression. In order to solve the problem of large amount of calculation, the integral image is adopted to speed up the rectangle feature calculation. In addition, the thought based on classified trainer is adopted to reduce the redundancy expression. The results show that using face image of Haar feature expression can improve the speed and efficiency of recognition.
