Abstract

For the problem that Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) face detection algorithm is slowly implemented on the embedded platform by software, this paper adopts the method of the full hardware acceleration. The intellectual property (IP) core of AdaBoost algorithm is designed by Vivado high-level synthesis (HLS), which may reduce the development difficulty and shorten the development cycle. The design adopts the serial–parallel structure to accelerate face detection and uses several methods of optimizing hardware resource. The face detection algorithm is implemented on the Zedboard platform and achieves the purpose of real-time detection.
