Real-time Face Tracking in Video Content using Viola-Jones Algorithm

Abstract

In this paper an implementation of an application for detecting and tracking faces in real-time using the Viola-Jones algorithm and OpenCV library has been presented. Also, using the developed application it is possible to recover from failure during face tracking. Video content is obtained from a file or webcam.
