Sorry for not diving into the docs and firing the question... Could this be used to easily detect where the eyes, mouth, etc. are within an ID picture? I'm not talking about face recognition, but rather about (the more trivial) face-element recognition.
- tsumnia 15y agoCoincidentally I'm working on this type of thing right now. Right now, 'feature detection' is a tiny bit more difficult. I work with something known as Active Shape/Appearance Models which do just that. The issue with them is needing to be roughly in the right spot to correctly conform to the object. Once you detect the object, you can apply a mesh frame to detect the inner objects. I'd recommend looking at Stacked Active Shape Modelling for a nice edge detection approach to feature detection. SimpleCV just released a video about face detection but I don't think they've expanded into features yet. Hopefully they don't cause I want to do it!
- kscottz 15y agoThe short answer is yes this can be done. You can use the Haar cascade wavelet files that ship with OpenCV 2.3. I will see if I can toss those into SimpleCV.
- kscottz 15y agoI ticketed this up and I will get to it Monday. I should be able to ship it with SimpleCV 1.2. https://sourceforge.net/p/simplecv/tickets/180/ https://sourceforge.net/p/simplecv/tickets/180/
