Face Detection using

Matlab
(VOILA-JONES ALGORITHM
Face Detection is the process of distinguishing faces from non
faces of one or more people in images or videos by analysing
and comparing patterns.

 Face Detection has become a very active area of


research in recent years …
 Numerous applications …
 Human-computer interaction (H.C.I)
 Biometric analysis
 Content-based coding of images and videos
 Surveillance
Different Algorithms

 The Kanade–Lucas–Tomasi (KLT) Algorithm

 2D DCT and Self Organizing Feature Map

 The Voila-Jones Algorithm


Voila-Jones Algorithm

 The first object detection framework

 Proposed in 2001 by Paul Viola and Michael Jones

 Primarily for the problem of face detection


Characteristics of Viola–Jones algorithm

 Robust

 Real time

 Face detection only


Stages of The Algorithm
 Haar Feature Selection

 Creating an Integral Image

 Adaboost Training

 Cascading Classifiers
MATLAB implementation of Viola–
Jones algorithm
%To detect Face
FDetect = vision.CascadeObjectDetector;
%Read the input image
I = imread('ironman.jpg');
%Returns Bounding Box values based on number of objects
BB = step(FDetect,I);
figure,
imshow(I); hold on
for i = 1:size(BB,1)
rectangle('Position',BB(i,:),'LineWidth',5,'LineStyle','-','EdgeColor','r');
end
face=imcrop(I,BB);
figure,imshow(face);

hold off;

%To detect Nose
NoseDetect = vision.CascadeObjectDetector('Nose','MergeThreshold',16);
BB=step(NoseDetect,I);
figure,
imshow(I); hold on
for i = 1:size(BB,1)
rectangle('Position',BB(i,:),'LineWidth',4,'LineStyle','-','EdgeColor','b');
