7. Object Detection and Face Recognition
Overview
The objective of this chapter is to explain the concepts of object detection and facial recognition techniques and implement these techniques on input images or videos. The first part of this chapter addresses facial recognition techniques based on Eigenfaces, Fisherfaces, and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) methods. The second part focuses on object detection techniques, and it begins with a widely practiced method called MobileNet Single Shot Detector (SSD) and subsequently addresses the LBP and Haar Cascade algorithms. By the end of this chapter, you will be able to determine and implement the most suitable algorithms for object detection and facial recognition to solve practical problems. ...
