Systems and methods are presented that determine components to use as examples to train a component-based face recognition system. In one embodiment, an initial component shape and size is determined, a training set is built, a component recognition classifier is trained, and the accuracy of the classifier is estimated. The component is then temporarily grown in each of four directions (up, down, left and right) and the effect on the classifier's accuracy is determined. The component is then grown in the direction that maximizes the classifier's accuracy. The process can be performed multiple times in order to maximize the classifier's accuracy. |
