Abstract

Facial detection and recognition is a major problem facing in image processing. Face identity is an important for identifying, searching and authentication purposes. Facial detection is quite common for humans; hence, it is very difficult for the computational device. The human face consists of many complicated multi-dimensions, and it is difficult to identify by a machine. The proposed methodology is used to distinguish human faces in the given multiple images using Viola-Jones algorithm framework and also improving accuracy from the false positive information and true negative information in the given data by using AdaBoost training methods and cascading classification.
