Abstract

As the amount of image and video data increases greatly, it requires an effective way to index and search. Human face can play an important role in indexing for multimedia databases. This paper proposes an automatic human face detection in digital video using SVM ensemble which is combining several SVMs in the scheme of majority voting. Experimental results show that the proposed detection method using SVM ensemble outperforms the conventional method using only single SVM in terms of false alarm and missing rate.
