Hi

Can any one help me I need to buy face detection code guide. when I click down load I get this message ''This product combination does not exist''.

[someone]

good work

[someone]

I want the code for face recognition using neural network in matlab
thank you

[saurabh bindoo]

Need a MATLAB code for 'online face recognition using fuzzy ART'

[C N N]

its great work.. but i would like to change it according to my database. When i train with my database of image, the accuracy is bad. It doesn't detect that well. why is that so?

[mary]

Its a good work. do you have any idea about retrieving face image from database using neural network and svm and comparing their results?

[k.v.swamy]

excellent sir,great work.thank u for giving us the code.

[Ali Tayeh]

I wanna the documentation its greaat :)

nice to see it work, thanks

[Said BOUREZG]

Hi sir,
good work, thanks

[Suzzie]

A good work done. works on all Matlab platforms, ie. Windows, Linux, Mac and it gives a 100% detection rate.

[kundan]

hello sir,
i am doing my B.Tech project in Image processing.i have to compare the image captured from webcam or camera to images stored in data base.please help me,i undergone with the code,but i don;t understand how to connect with WebCam.

[hema]

Hello sir,
I'm interested to do project on 'face and eye detection'. I have downloaded the code and i tried to execute the code but it showed the errors because i don't know anything about programming part & even i don't know commands & functions in matlab. I have tried to execute the code without any manipulations.im a quick learner i can learn all about matlab in a short period of time but i have no time to finalize the project topic name.i have to finalize the topic name by 08-feb-2011.so kindly explain the code with an example or in detail.if u help me in executing the code then i will do project on this topic.so kindly help me.i will be very thankful to you.Forgive me if u find any mistakes in my english.I hope to receive your reply as soon as possible.Thank you.

[Krishna Sarbari]

can you give me the algorithm for the code.

[raghav kowtha]

awesome work!!!!
it worked for me very well!!
i'll be glad to see if u could also give any flow chart or algorithm which u used to implement your ideas!!!
thank u !

[Albin]

Excellent! I like your approach with gabor filtering and neural network.

[victoria]

great job !
but i received the foll error when i press the train network button.

what's the solution?

??? Error using ==> svmtrain at 172
Group must be a vector.

Error in ==> trainnet at 18
net =
svmtrain(P',T','Kernel_Function','linear','Polyorder',2,'quadprog_opts',options);

Error in ==> main at 32
net = trainnet(IMGDB);

[Mark]

Great stuff! However when it comes to place the rectangles over the faces I get the following error:

??? Undefined function or variable 'Threshold'.

Error in ==> imscan at 74
xy_ = Cell.net > Threshold;

(as the 'Threshold' variable is not defined anywhere). What should it be set to?

[Omid Sakhi]

Thank you for all your comments and questions. One of the most question that I get all the time is the bugs. This program only works with MATLAB version 7.1 and later. Also you need to have image processing and neural network toolbox installed.

Also recently I have heard that there is also a program with MATLAB x64. Please inform me if the program works on x64 or not. Thank you.

[Yoav Feldman]

Well I guess that the problem is with the Matlab that I used and not with the code.

I used Matlab 6.1 and it appears that it is not compatible
with this application.

[Yoav Feldman]

Your code has Bugs,

Maybe this is your intention in order to sell your reference (-;

[XV22]

Hi,
This is not working on Linux with matlab 2010a, I get the following when I click "Train Network":
??? Error using ==> network.train at 145
P: Element {1,1} has 0 rows instead of 2160.

Error in ==> trainnet at 17
net = train(net,P,T);

Error in ==> main at 38
net = trainnet(net,IMGDB);

can you please help me?

I have seen your Face Detection using Gabor feature extraction and neural network. Your Gabor feature extraction method is different from the papers. And I can not understand it. Can you introduce some materia about your code. Just like some Gabor formulas.

very nice work

[fayaz fayaz]

i am currently doing this project on face recognition,
so currently i want to extract face from an image using matlab, could you pls do me a favour that to give me some guidance about this topic? your help will be much appreciated. I would like to ask another favour that could i have the code so i can understand more about this topic. Thanks

[Sivaraam]

nice

[Sahar Mirzaei]

i am currently doing some survey on object recognition and neural network.
Your code is wonderful. Do you have some guidance or documentation about it. It would be very nice, if you could send me some documentation about this topic, so that I can undrestand your code more better. Thank in advance for your help.

[sara]

wonderful work , thank you, but it did not detect large image with high resolution

[Ivelina Stefanova]

User-friendly interface, nice.
The only drawback is that test images need to be re-sized as the algorithm may only recognise faces appr. 27 x 18 pixels.

Thanks for ur guidance, i have learned alot from it. I really appreciate ur help mr Omid Sakhi

[a a]

 

[Alex Mugioiu]

I'm working for my PhD in "Face Recognition". I have a number of databases of still faces. In order to reduce the computational level and to discard the background information i tried your algorithm for detection, but with little success. I'm confident that with your guidance (in training and using the network) i can obtain much better results.
Thank you in advance.

[anila satish]

is it advisable to carry out a research in face detection techniques using image rpocesisng and neural networks?

[Srikrishna Bhat]

With such a small data base a good classifier has been developed. Need to increase the speed.

[nzg ningzhigang]

 

[AKROUT Belhassen]

good application.
i encourage you to contenue in this project

[nirjhar bhattacharjee]

The codes can't detect face?
What can i do?
i followed the instruction too.
But....................

well done

[Yaron M]

got the following error after pressing train network button:

??? Error using ==> network.train
Inputs are incorrectly sized for network.
Matrices must all have 2160 rows.

Error in ==> trainnet at 17
net = train(net,P,T);

what to do?

[vishal wankhede]

Code has written by rich knoedge person

[Josiah Yoder]

Notes:
To run under linux (ubuntu) with Matlab 7.3 (R2006b), I made the following changes:

* Use / instead of \ for paths in loadimages.m
* Use mapminmax( x' )' instead of premnmx( x )
in imscan.m and im2vec.m

when i try to train the network , it gives an error. do i have to do something before training the n/w

[Sahar M]

Hi dear Mr. Sakhi.I'm a AI student.I run your code & found it very interesting & usefull so I decided to use it as a part of one of my projects.I have some questions about your project:what sort of images can be used for train & specially for test,do you have any database for it?do you have any document & refrences about it(maybe in farsi)?I will be very appriciating if you let me have those docs.I hope to receive your reply as soon as possible.Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,
I am Suvad Selman and I have one thing to ask (report). I have download this file, unzip it and when i run main.m i got some strange error messages. Here is the message that I get:
*WARNING* PREMNMX is an obsolete function.

Use MAPMINMAX instead, type HELP PREMNMX for bug warning.
Type NNTWARN OFF to suppress NNT warning messages.

Please help me so that I can run this program normally.
Thanks in advance.

excuse me sir,
my name is GoberGood.
I have been studying in Ahmad Dahlan University.
I have downloaded your program matlab about "face detection" at http://www.mathworks.com.
and I interest to develop your program
to finish the my master education. for that,
I hope to you to assist the me in collecting reference
of about " face detection" and problem any kind of which
you get when doing research. I very requiring of
your paper. forgiveness, if my english is bad.

Dear Omid,
when we run the Main under Matlab we received the following errors:
??? Error: File: C:\MATLAB6p1\work\loadimages.m Line: 6 Column: 6
Missing operator, comma, or semicolon.

Error in ==> C:\MATLAB6p1\work\main.m
On line 41 ==> IMGDB = loadimages;
We would appreciate it if you could help us solving the problem.
