Title:

A PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FACE DETECTION

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/019709

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

Disclosed is a processing device (102) and method (200) for faster face detection. a method (200) for detecting a presence of at least one face in at least one image is disclosed. The method (200) comprises of creating (202) an image patch map based on a plurality of face patches identified for at least one window in said in at least one image; estimating (204) a bounding box; and searching (206) within said bounding box to detect presence of said at least one face in said at least one image. The present invention discloses use of any classifier which works on top of any feature representation to identify face patches and then using a masking system to identify bounding boxes. The present invention is applicable in the area of but not limited to handheld terminals/devices, HD video Surveillance, and camera auto-focus based on face detection.
