Figure 3.19. <strong>Face</strong> detection results on half-profile faces. Each example contains an<br />

original image (top) <strong>and</strong> a lighting-compensated image (bottom) overlaid with face<br />

detection results.<br />

90.74% <strong>for</strong> near-frontal faces, <strong>and</strong> to 74.67% <strong>for</strong> half-profile faces. The reason <strong>for</strong> this<br />

decrease in detection rate is the removal of those faces in which the eyes/mouth are<br />

not visible. However, we can see that the number of false positives is dramatically<br />

reduced from 9, 406 after the skin grouping stage to just 27 after the feature detection<br />

stage <strong>for</strong> the whole database containing 206 images.<br />

The Champion database was collected from the Internet, <strong>and</strong> contains 227 compressed<br />

images which are approximately 150 × 220 pixels in size. Because most of the<br />

images in this database are captured in frontal <strong>and</strong> near-frontal views, we present a<br />

single detection rate <strong>for</strong> all poses in Table 3.2. The detection rate <strong>for</strong> the first two<br />

stages is about 99.12%. After the third stage, the detection rate decreases to 91.63%.<br />
