Abstract

Although many methods have been developed for holistic face detection, detecting partial faces hasn't been a successful endeavor yet. Partial faces frequently appear in real world environments like in surveillance videos and are quite difficult to detect. Recently, CNNs have shown very promising results with object detection in PASCAL VOC challenges. We propose an approach to detect partial faces along with holistic faces (frontal and profile views) present in natural scenarios. In the proposed method, we use CNN for feature extraction and representation. The drawback of CNN being computationally expensive is dealt with Selective Search using Segmentation, which reduces the search space to a great extent. We used FDDB Benchmarking for evaluating our method and the results were near the best results of all recent methods in the face detection domain.
