Face detection is an important aspect of computer vision and image processing. It involves identifying and locating faces within an image or video. This practice page aims to provide a comprehensive guide to face detection techniques and their applications.

Techniques

  • Traditional Methods: These include feature-based methods like Viola-Jones and HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients).
  • Deep Learning: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have revolutionized face detection with models like MTCNN (Multi-task Cascaded Convolutional Networks).

Applications

  • Security: Face recognition for access control and surveillance.
  • Augmented Reality: Overlaying digital information on real-world images.
  • Facial Expression Analysis: Understanding emotions in human-computer interaction.
