We present a novel object localization approach based on the global structure constraint model (GSC) and optimal algorithm. In GSC, Objects are described as constellations of points satisfied with their specific global structure constraints. The spatial relations among all the patches having stable color information and their representative color information around patches are encoded. Then, the searching algorithm, i.e. genetic algorithm, is used to locate target objects in images by finding out the exactly matched position. In the experiment, we tested the approach on a collection of human face images and the results demonstrated the approach is simple, effective and efficient.
