Acasandrei, Laurentiu ; Barriga, Angel
Abstract :
In this communication a speed optimized implementation of Viola-Jones Face Detection Algorithm based on the baseline OpenCV face detection application is presented. The baseline OpenCV face detection application is analyzed. Then the necessary modifications and improvements are described in order to accelerate the execution speed in an embedded or SoC (System-on-Chip) environments.
