Efficient Half Face Detection System Based on Linear Binary Pattern
In the field of computer vision, face detection algorithms achieved accuracy to a great extent, but for the real time applications it remains a challenge to maintain the balance between the accuracy and efficiency i.e., to gain accuracy computational cost also increases to deal with the large data sets. This paper, propose half face detection algorithm to address the efficiency of the face detection algorithm. The full face detection algorithm consider complete face data set for training which incur more computation cost. To reduce the computation cost, proposed model captures the features of the half of the face by assuming that the human face is symmetric about the vertical axis passing through the nose and train the system using reduced half face features. The proposed algorithm extracts Linear Binary Pattern (LBP) features and train model using adaboost classifier. Algorithm performance is presented in terms of the accuracy i.e., True Positive Rate (TPR), False Positive Rate (FTR) and face recognition time complexity.
