TL;DR

A method for automatic detection and localization of faces on digital images is proposed, based on learning by example and multi-resolution analysis of digital images, using a Multi-Layer Perceptron as a classifier.

Abstract

A method for automatic detection and localization of faces on digital images is proposed. The method is based on learning by example and multi-resolution analysis of digital images. Special emphasis is put on the management of the learning data, in order to improve the performances. Various experimental results, obtained by using a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) as a classifier, are provided.
