Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for detecting a face from an image. The apparatus and method uses color components and enables a Support Vector Machine (SVM) having superior recognition performance to previously learn face and non-face images and determine whether an image is a face image based on a learned image database by reducing the size of a feature vector of a face as compared to conventional systems. Accordingly, the apparatus converts a face image into a mosaic image having a minimum size to reduce the dimension of the feature vector, in order to rapidly and correctly detect a face image.
