【Abstract】 Recently the human face detection system based on Adaboost is successfully used in application areas because of its high speed and accepted detection rates, but building this system is very complex and its training time is extremely long. Numerous weaker classifiers need to be updated in the Adaboost during the training stage. A new fast training algorithm for Adaboost is proposed to solve this problem. Two methods are adopted to accelerate the training:(1) A method to directly solve the parameters of single weaker classifier is proposed, making the training speed is higher than probability method about 20 times and higher than artificial neural network thousands of times; (2) A double threshold decision for single weaker classifier is introduced, and the number of weaker classifiers in the Adaboost system is reduced, which simplifies the structure of the detection system. Based on the simplified detector, both the training time and the detecting time can be reduced.更多还原
