  • Abstract
    Locating facial features is crucial for various face recognition schemes. The authors suggest a robust facial feature detector based on a generalized symmetry interest operator. No special tuning is required if the face occupies 15-60% of the image. The operator was tested on a large face data base with a success rate of over 95%
