Classification of image databases using face detection
Szabolcs Sergyán · 2008
During image retrieval in image databases the indexing technique can be used on many ways. The two most frequently used methods are the text-based and the content-based indexing. In case of content-based image retrieval the image classification is significant, and after the classification process the image retrieval can be much efficient than without classification. A possible way of image classification is the decision of that, the image contains human faces or not. In this paper a survey of the recently used face detection algorithms, and a comparative analysis of that is shown. The effectiveness of face detection algorithms in image classification also is shown.
