Learning Support Vector Machines for A Multi-View Face Model
Julia Kwong, Shaogang Gong · 1999
Support Vector Machines have shown great potential for learning classification functions that can be applied to object recognition. In this work, we extend SVMs to model the appearance of human faces which undergo nonlinear change across multiple views. The approach uses inherent factors in the nature of the input images and the SVM classification algorithm to perform both multi-view face detection and pose estimation.
