Abstract

Face detection is an important topic in the world of computer science and information technology. Face detection is a computer technology that determines the locations and sizes of human faces in arbitrary (digital) images [1]. It detects facial features and ignores anything else. In this paper a unique method to identify faces is given using back-propagation neural network.
