Abstract :
This paper studies the possibility of intelligent video analysis by means of major face determination in video. To deal with this problem, efficient and effective methods of face tracking, face chopping, face matching, graph partitioning, and temporal relation analysis are proposed. Our system is used to analyze many TV programs and reports promising results.
