This paper addresses a method of estimating roughly the human pose by comparing Haar-wavelet value which is learned in face detection technology using AdaBoost algorithm. We also presents its application to face recognition. The learned weak classifier is used to a Haar-wavelet robust to each pose's feature by comparing the coefficients during the process of face detection. The Mahalanobis distance is used to measure the matching degree in Haar-wavelet selection. When a facial image is detected using the selected Haar-wavelet, the pose is estimated. The proposed pose estimation can be used to improve face recognition speed. Experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method for pose estimation.

In this paper, a robust method is developed to locate the irises of both eyes. The method doesn't put any restrictions on the background. The method is based on the AdaBoost algorithm for face and eye candidate points detection. Candidate points are tuned such that two candidate points are exactly in the centers of the irises. Mean crossing function and convolution template are proposed to filter out candidate points and select the iris pair. The advantage of using this kind of hybrid method is that AdaBoost is robust to different illumination conditions and backgrounds. The tuning step improves the precision of iris localization while the convolution filter and mean crossing function reliably filter out candidate points and select the iris pair. The proposed structure is evaluated on three public databases, Bern, Yale and BioID. Extensive experimental results verified the robustness and accuracy of the proposed method. Using the Bern database, the performance of the proposed algorithm is also compared with some of the existing methods.

Window image is displayed through a monitor screen when we execute the application programs on the computer. This includes webpage, video player and a number of applications. The webpage delivers a variety of information by various types in comparison with other application. Unlike a natural image captured from a camera, the window image like a webpage includes diverse components such as text, logo, icon, subimage and so on. Each component delivers various types of information to users. However, the components with different characteristic need to be divided locally, because text and image are served by various type. In this paper, we divide window images into many sub blocks, and classify each divided region into background, text and subimage. The detected subimages can be applied into 2D-to-3D conversion, image retrieval, image browsing and so forth. There are many subimage classification methods. In this paper, we utilize AdaBoost for verifying that the machine learning-based algorithm can be efficient for subimage detection. In the experiment, we showed that the subimage detection ratio is 93.4 % and false alarm is 13 %.

The non-contact eye tracking is a nonintrusive human-computer interface providing hands-free communications for people with severe disabilities. Recently. it is expected to do an important role in non-contact systems due to the recent coronavirus COVID-19, etc. This paper proposes a novel approach for an eye mouse using an eye tracking method based on a context-aware based AdaBoost multi-region classifier and ASSL algorithm. The conventional AdaBoost algorithm, however, cannot provide sufficiently reliable performance in face tracking for eye cursor pointing estimation, because it cannot take advantage of the spatial context relations among facial features. Therefore, we propose the eye-region context based AdaBoost multiple classifier for the efficient non-contact gaze tracking and mouse implementation. The proposed method detects, tracks, and aggregates various eye features to evaluate the gaze and adjusts active and semi-supervised learning based on the on-screen cursor. The proposed system has been successfully employed in eye location, and it can also be used to detect and track eye features. This system controls the computer cursor along the user's gaze and it was postprocessing by applying Gaussian modeling to prevent shaking during the real-time tracking using Kalman filter. In this system, target objects were randomly generated and the eye tracking performance was analyzed according to the Fits law in real time. It is expected that the utilization of non-contact interfaces.

Viola와 Jine가 제안한 AdaBoost를 이용한 얼굴 검출 알고리즘은 빠른 얼굴 검출 속도와 뛰어난 성능으로 인해 최근 여러분야에서 널리 사용되고 있는 알고리즘 중 하나이다. 하지만 AdaBoost를 이용하여 얼굴을 검출함에 있어 오검출이 존재하며, 이를 줄이기 위해서는 많은 연산이 요구되며, 실시간 얼굴 검출이 필요한 분야에 적용되기에는 속도 면에서 단점으로 작용한다. 기존의 Adaboost의 얼굴 검출기는 그레이스케일 영상만을 사용하므로, 영상의 컬러 정보와 부가적인 정보를 사용하면 더 적은 연산으로 오검출률을 감소시킬 수 있고, 올바른 얼굴을 검출이 된 다음 추적 알고리즘에 적용을 시키면 동영상으로 입력되는 영상에 대해 실시간으로 얼굴을 검출 할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 얼굴 추적을 위한 사전단계로 컬러 정보와 부가적인 정보로 깊이 정보를 사용하여 얼굴을 효율적으로 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다.

This paper introduces an Augmented Reality system recognizing hand gestures and shows results of the evaluation. The system's user can interact with artificial objects and manipulate their position and motions simply by his hand gestures. Hand gesture recognition is based on Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG). Salient features of human hand appearance are detected by HOG blocks. Blocks of different sizes are tested to define the most suitable configuration. To select the most informative blocks for classification multiclass AdaBoostSVM algorithm is applied. Evaluated recognition rate of the algorithm is 94.0%.

For future autonomous cars, it is necessary to recognize various surrounding environments such as lanes, traffic lights, and vehicles. This paper presents a method of speed sign recognition from a single image in automatic driving assistance systems. The detection step with the proposed method emphasizes the color attributes in modified YUV color space because speed sign area is affected by color. The proposed method is further improved by extracting the digits from the highlighted circle region. A sequential cascade AdaBoost classifier is then used in the recognition step for real-time processing. Experimental results show the performance of the proposed algorithm is superior to that of conventional algorithms for various speed signs and real-world conditions.
