Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to present an improved version of Viola & Jones [1] face detection algorithm, characterized by the fact that the weak classifier generation uses two threshold levels, depending on the positive examples distributions only. The algorithm was implemented in Matlab, and is able to dynamically detect faces in 240×320 webcam frames within 100ms.
