This paper proposes a real-time face detection and tracking a method in complex backgrounds. The proposed method is based on the principal component analysis (PCA) technique. For the detection of a face, first, we use a skin color model and motion information. And then using the PCA technique the detected regions are verified to determine which region is indeed the face. The tracking of a face is based on the Euclidian distance in eigenspace between the previously tracked face and the newly detected faces. Camera control for the face tracking is done in such a way that the detected face region is kept on the center of the screen by controlling the pan/tilt platform. The proposed method is extensible to other systems such as teleconferencing system, intruder inspection system, and so on.

Face recognition technologies using PCA(principal component analysis) recognize faces by deciding representative features of faces in the model image, extracting feature vectors from faces in a image and measuring the distance between them and face representation. Given frequent recognition problems associated with the use of point-to-point distance approach, this study adopted the K-nearest neighbor technique(class-to-class) in which a group of face models of the same class is used as recognition unit for the images inputted on a continual input image. This paper proposes a new PCA recognition in which database of faces.

This paper presents an approach to visual information based temporal indexing of video sequences. The objective of this work is the integration of an automatic face detection and a matching system for video indexing. The face detection is done using color information. The matching stage is based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) followed by the Minimax Probability Machine (MPM). Using PCA one feature vector is calculated for each face which is detected at the previous stage from the video sequence and MPM is applied to these feature vectors for matching with the training faces which are manually indexed after extracting from video sequences. The integration of the two stages gives good results. The rate of 86.3% correctly classified frames shows the efficiency of our system.

On the analysis of cutting mechanics in orthogonal cutting, each cutting force component can be predicted. By adding the flank face wear term to the prediction equation for cutting force components, complete equations are obtained. Using these equations, it is shown that cutting force components are increased linearly as flank face wear land is developed, in theory and experiment. By making non-dimensional term ie. Fv/Fc, the width of variation of output signal Fv/Fc is greately decreased compared with each cutting force component as cutting condition is varied. Among these conditions, the variation of chip width in the range of more than 1mm and that of cutting velocity have little effect on the output signal Fv/Fc, that of Flank face werr land can be detected without difficulty.

Face Detection can be defined as follows : Given a digitalized arbitrary or image sequence, the goal of face detection is to determine whether or not there is any human face in the image, and if present, return its location, direction, size, and so on. This technique is based on many applications such face recognition facial expression, head gesture and so on, and is one of important qualify factors. But face in an given image is considerably difficult because facial expression, pose, facial size, light conditions and so on change the overall appearance of faces, thereby making it difficult to detect them rapidly and exactly. Therefore, this paper proposes fast and exact face detection which overcomes some restrictions by using neural network. The proposed system can be face detection irrelevant to facial expression, background and pose rapidily. For this. face detection is performed by neural network and detection response time is shortened by reducing search region and decreasing calculation time of neural network. Reduced search region is accomplished by using skin color segment and frame difference. And neural network calculation time is decreased by reducing input vector sire of neural network. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) can reduce the dimension of data. Also, pose estimates in extracted facial image and eye region is located. This result enables to us more informations about face. The experiment measured success rate and process time using the Squared Mahalanobis distance. Both of still images and sequence images was experimented and in case of skin color segment, the result shows different success rate whether or not camera setting. Pose estimation experiments was carried out under same conditions and existence or nonexistence glasses shows different result in eye region detection. The experiment results show satisfactory detection rate and process time for real time system.

Biometrics is essential for person identification because of its uniqueness from each individuals. Face recognition technology has advantage over other biometrics because of its convenience and non-intrusive characteristics. In this paper, we will present a overview of face recognition technology including face detection, feature extraction, and face recognition system. For face detection, we will describe template based method and face component based approach. PCA and LDA approach will be discussed for feature extraction, and nearest neighbor classifiers -will be covered for matching. Large database and the standardized performance evaluation methodology is essential in order to support state-of-the-art face recognition system. Also, 3D based face recognition technology is the key solution for the pose, lighting and expression variations in many applications.

In this paper, we propose the system which recognize the gaze using Random Forests in vehicular environment based on smart-phone. Proposed system is mainly composed of the following: face detection using Adaboost, face component estimation using Histograms, and gaze recognition based on Random Forests. We detect a driver based on the image information with a smart-phone camera, and the face component of driver is estimated. Next, we extract the feature vectors from the estimated face component and recognize gaze direction using Random Forest recognition algorithm. Also, we collected gaze database including a variety gaze direction in real environments for the experiment. In the experiment result, the face detection rate and the gaze recognition rate showed 82.02% and 84.77% average accuracies, respectively.

We present a robust face tracking system from the sequence of video images based on effective detector and Kalman filter. To construct the effective face detector, we extract the face features using the five types of simple Haar-like features. Extracted features are reinterpreted using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and interpreted principal components are used for Support Vector Machine (SVM) that classifies the faces and non-faces. We trace the moving face with Kalman filter, which uses the static information of the detected faces and the dynamic information of changes between previous and current frames. To make a real-time tracking system, we reduce processing time by adjusting the frequency of face detection. In this experiment, the proposed system showed an average tracking rate of 95.5% and processed at 15 frames per second. This means the system is robust enough to track faces in real-time.

객체의 특징점을 추출할 때, 일반적으로 모델 기반 접근을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 모델 기반 특징점 추출 알고리즘으로 PCA를 근간으로 하는 Active Appearance Model을 이용하는데, 기존의 AAM 알고리즘은 모든 특징점을 하나의 군집으로 기준하여 PCA를 수행하지만 본 논문에서는 이것을 각 주요 부위별 학습 모델로 분리하여 수행한다. 그리고 이러한 모델에서 특징점을 찾을 때, 발산하는 문제에 빠지지 않기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 제시한 방법의 모델을 이용하여 실험 할 경우의 결과와 이를 통한 개별 모델의 특성에 대하여 파악한 결과를 제시한다.

A face detection plays an important role in face recognition, video surveillance, and human computer interaction. In this paper, we propose a progressive threshold method to detect human faces in real time. The consecutive face images are acquired from camera and transformed into YCbCr color space images. The skin color of the input images are separated using a skin color filter in the YCbCr color space and some candidated face areas are decided by connected component analysis. The intensity equalization is performed to avoid the effect of many circumstances and an arbitrary threshold value is applied to get binary images. The eye area can be detected because the area is clearly distinguished from others in the binary image progressive threshold method searches for an optimal eye area by progressively increasing threshold from low values. After progressive thresholding, the eye area is normalized and verified by back propagation algorithm to finalize the face detection.
