Abstract
This paper proposes a method which improves the performance of face detection by using SVM(Support Vector Machine). first, it finds face region candidates by using AdaBoost based object detection method which selects a small number of critical features from a larger set. Next it classifies if the candidate is a face or non-face by using SVM(Support Vector Machine). Experimental results shows that the proposed method improve accuracy of face detection in comparison with existing method.
