Abstract
Visual detection and tracking of faces in complex scenes is a very interesting and challenging problem. In general, real human-computer interaction scenarios present significant challenges to most face detection and tracking algorithms, for example, partially occluded and low-resolution faces, as well as lighting and head-pose variations. These difficulties can often be successfully addressed by additional information in the form of multicamera input to reduce spatial uncertainty in the scene of interest. The system described in this dissertation takes such information into account by providing a joint framework for 3D face detection and tracking.
