Abstract
Face detection and tracking method is executed by a computer or a microprocessor with computing capability for identifying human faces and positions thereof in image frames. First, face detection is performed to detect human faces in a plurality of frames. Then, face tracking is performed on each of the frames to track the detected human faces and record positions of these human faces. Afterward, face detection on the image frames is again performed every few frames, skipping the positions of the human faces that have been recorded, so as to quickly search for other human faces that might be newly added.
