Research of AdaBoost Face Detection and OpenCV Implementation

Article Preview

Abstract:

We introduce the principle of AdaBoost face detection algorithm based on Haar-like feature in detail, and use OpenCV face detection module to realize AdaBoost algorithm on CMU face library. Experimental results show that the algorithm receives good effects. Meanwhile we analyze the relationship between the number of simple classifier and face detection result.
