METHOD FOR FACIAL FEATURES DETECTION

摘要

A method of detecting an object, in particular a face, in an image using template matching uses at least two different templates for the same object. Templates are provided for left eye, right eye and between- the -eyes. A confidence map is produced for each template and the confidence maps are merged. This may take place at several resolutions. The detected regions are further checked with symmetry, texture and/or geometrical relationship to other facial parts.
