In this paper, we suggest an improved Viola-Jones detection framework for the efficient feature selection and the fast rejection method of the sub-window. Our object detector has low computational complexity because it rejects sub-windows until specific threshold. Owing to using same framework, detection performance is same with the existing Viola-Jones detector. We measure the number of average feature calculation about MIT-CMU test set. As a result of the experiment, the number of average feature calculation is reduced to 45.5% and the detection speed is improved about 58.5% compared with the previous algorithm.

본 연구에서는 기존의 Viola-Jones 물체 검출 프레임워크를 개선하여 하나의 특징 당 더 높은 효율을 가지며 검출대상이 아닌 서브 윈도우들을 더 빠르게 제거하는 학습 알고리즘을 제안한다. 학습의 결과로 생성된 물체 검출기는 서브윈도우를 특정 임계값까지 빠르게 제거하기 때문에 서브윈도우당 계산수가 줄어든다. 기존의 Viola-Jones 물체 검출기와 동일한 프레임워크이므로 인식성능에는 영향을 주지 않는다. MIT-CMU 테스트 집합에 대해서 서브윈도우당 특징 계산 횟수를 측정하였으며 기존 계산 횟수의 57%로 줄어들어 검출 속도가 약 71% 향상됨을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 SWO 방식의 물체 검출기를 개선하여 비디오 환경에 적합하며 실시간 처리가 가능한 Tracking 방식의 PSO 물체 검출기를 제안한다. PSO 방식 스캔은 각각의 입자들이 전역 최적 값으로 수렴하기 때문에 다중 검출에는 적지 않은데, 본 논문에서는 다중 물체를 검출하고 관리할 수 있도록 Tracking 개념을 적용하였다. 제안하는 방법을 적용하면 검출기의 오검출률을 줄이고 안정적인 검출 결과를 얻을 수 있으며 속도가 향상되어 실시간 처리가 가능하다. 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘을 적용해 본 결과 기존의 Viola-Jones 얼굴 검출기와 비교하여 검출률은 동일하면서 속도가 최대 21배 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a robust viewpoint estimation algorithm for Moving Parallax Barrier mobile 3D display in sudden illumination changes. We analyze the previous viewpoint estimation algorithm that consists of the Viola-Jones face detector and the feature tracking by the Optical-Flow. The sudden changes in illumination decreases the performance of the Optical-flow feature tracker. In order to solve the problem, we define a novel performance measure for the Optical-Flow tracker. The overall performance can be increased by the selective adoption of the Viola-Jones detector and the Optical-flow tracker depending on the performance measure. Various experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The cascade face detector learned by Adaboost algorithm, which was proposed by Viola and Jones, is state of the art face detector due to its great speed and accuracy. In spite of its great performance, it still suffers from false alarms, and more computation is required to reduce them. In this paper, we want to reduce false alarms with less computation using facial color. Using facial color information, proposed face detection model scans sub-window efficiently and adapts a fast face/non-face classifier at the first stage of cascade face detector. This makes face detection faster and reduces false alarms. For facial color filtering, we define a facial color membership function, and facial color filtering image is obtained using that. An integral image is calculated from facial color filtering image. Using this integral image, its density of subwindow could be obtained very fast. The proposed scanning method skips over sub-windows that do not contain possible faces based on this density. And the face/non-face classifier at the first stage of cascade detector rejects a non-face quickly. By experiment, we show that the proposed face detection model reduces false alarms and is faster than the original cascade face detector.
