Face recognition has been widely used in many application areas such as photo album management and information security. Rapid growth of handheld devices and social networks bring new challenges to face recognition algorithm design and system engineering. To be effective on a handheld device, the face recognition model must be simple and lightweight, and also needs to handle the large variations in...
We present a novel boosting cascade based face detection framework using SURF features. The framework is derived from the well-known Viola-Jones (VJ) framework but distinguished by two key contributions. First, the proposed framework deals with only several hundreds of multidimensional local SURF patches instead of hundreds of thousands of single dimensional haar features in the VJ framework. Second,...
Facial landmark detection is an essential module in many face related applications and it often appears as the most time consuming part in face processing pipeline. This paper proposes a fast and effective method for facial landmark detection using Haar cascade classifiers and a simple 3D head model, which not only detects the position of landmark points but also gives an estimation of head pose such...
Emerging video-mining applications such as image and video retrieval and indexing will require real-time processing capabilities. A many-core architecture with 64 small, in-order, general-purpose cores as the accelerator can help meet the necessary performance goals and requirements. The key video-mining modules can achieve parallel speedups of 19times to 62times from 64 cores and get an extra 2.3times...
