碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 資訊工程學研究所 === 91 === Human face detection is an important capability with a wide range of applications, such as human face recognition, video conference, surveillance systems, content-based image retrieval, human-computer interface, etc. In most such applications, the existence of human faces and their corresponding locations must found. In other words, a reliable and fast method for detecting and locating face regions is of practical. In this paper, a fast approach for detecting the existence and location of human faces in a complex scene is introduced. In this method, we first detect possible regions of the human eyes by two features. A number of possible face candidates are formed, which are them further verified as human faces or not by adopting the algorithm of principal component analysis.
