Modification of the AdaBoost-based Detector for Partially Occluded Faces

While face detection seems a solved problem under general conditions, most state-of-the-art systems degrade rapidly when faces are partially occluded by other objects. This paper presents a solution to detect partially occluded faces by reasonably modifying the AdaBoost-based face detector. Our basic idea is that the weak classifiers in the AdaBoost-based face detector, each corresponding to a Haar-like feature, are inherently a patch-based model. Therefore, one can divide the whole face region into multiple patches, and map those weak classifiers to the patches. The weak classifiers belonging to each patch are re-formed to be a new classifier to determine if it is a valid face patch - without occlusion. Finally, we combine all of the valid face patches by assigning the patches with different weights to make the final decision whether the input subwindow is a face. The experimental results show that the proposed method is promising for the detection of occluded faces
