Do I have to train Viola-Jones Algorithm with my database to obtain accurate results?

I try to extract facial features of a face database but I recognized that Viola-Jones algorithm is not working well* in two cases: When I try to detect the eyes singly, When I try to detect the mouth. *Not working well: Detects different parts of…

Face detection using Viola Jones in openCV

I am now comparing the time performance of Viola-Jones code between the one that is written in pure C code and one that uses openCV function cvHaarDetectObjects(). So far, it seems that the time it takes to detect faces with pure C code is about…

Viola Jones Face Detection framework

I have just started studying the Viola-Jones face detection algorithm to design a face recognition system. off all the things i understood, I have confusion regarding the phrase:"sum of pixels". Does it means sum of colors at given pixels or the sum…

AdaBoost and Viola Jones: What training set to use?

I have implemented my own version of Viola Jones face recognition algorithm that uses AdaBoost as a meta for building a classification committee. My aim is to build a classifier that can recognize whether there is a human face in an image. I am…

Error in generating samples for trainCascadeObjectDetector in MATLAB

I was trying to train the cascade object detector in matlab with the 30 positive images with specified ROI and 10 negative images (without specified ROI). My code resembles with the matlab example code of 'Stop Sign Detector'. But when I tried to…

Haar-like features to detect objects

I was studying Viola-Jones paper for better understanding of their object detection algorithm and producing an applicable program. In the last paragraph of features' topic, authors talk about the base resolution of the detector which is 24x24, they…

Ideal images for Viola-Jones Haar cascade in OpenCV

I am trying to detect specific objects in images using Haar cascade in OpenCV. Let's say I am interested in detecting stop signs in landscape images. When defining positive image samples for my training set, which would be the best kind of image:…
