摘要：The face is our primary focus of attention in social life playing an important role in conveying identity andemotions. We can recognize a number of faces learned throughout our lifespan and identify faces at a glanceeven after years of separation. This skill is quite robust despite of large variations in visual stimulus due tochanging condition, aging and distractions such as beard, glasses or changes in hairstyle.Face detection is used in many places now a days especially the websites hosting images like picassa,photobucket and facebook. The automatically tagging feature adds a new dimension to sharing picturesamong the people who are in the picture and also gives the idea to other people about who the person is inthe image. In our project, we have studied and implemented a pretty simple but very effective face detectionalgorithm which takes human skin colour into account. Our aim, which we believe we have reached, was todevelop a method of face detection that is fast, robust, reasonably simple and accurate with a relativelysimple and easy to understand algorithms and techniques. The examples provided in this thesis are real-timeand taken from our own surroundings
