Abstract

This paper presents a hybrid approach to face detection and feature extraction. The remarkable advancement in technology has enhanced the use of more accurate and precise methods to detect faces. This paper presents a combination of three well known algorithms Viola- Jones face detection framework, Neural Networks and Canny edge detection method to detect face in static images. The proposed work emphasizes on the face detection and identification using Viola-Jones algorithm which is a real time face detection system. Neural Networks will be used as a classifier between faces and non-faces. Canny edge detection method is an efficient method for detecting boundaries on a face in this proposed work. The Canny edge detector is primarily useful to locate sharp intensity changes and to find object boundaries in an image.
