Abstract
The invention relates to a face finding method and system in a binarized image by comparing the dot group of the binarized image with the dot group of a face model, wherein the dot groups of the binarized image and of the face model are compared on the basis of the Hausdorff spacing between the dots of the dot groups and a face is recognized in the binarized image when a measure derived from the Hausdorff spacing fails to reach a limit value.
