faces comparison
May 18th, 2009, 9:02am
 
Hi everyone!

i'm working on a face comparison program.
To sum up, from a picture of someone (a portrait), i want to find a similar picture into a database.
i've got no idea about how doing this kind of code...

Any suggestions on that research?

Thanks a lot!

I think you guys might have bitten over more than you can chew.

But to point you in the right direction;

Processing Face Detection Libraries:
http://tokage.cafe24.com/facedetect/index.htm
http://www.bryanchung.net/?page_id=251

Other libraries that might help:
OpenCV
JMyron

or something like that might be helpful.

But comparing them, that's a whole different area.

thanks !
but i've already work with this kind of librairies.
Now, i'm looking for a technical way for comparing two portraits:
i think that it's a little bit different...

if someone have another proposition or idea... Smiley

CheesyOpenCV use Haar wavelet to recognize face but the main aim of haar wavelet is to compute feature vector that are normally use for classification and thus recognition !
search for Haar classifier...

You need to have a list of picture for training and one for testing and stuff like that.. that's a long story ! googlit ! :p
