abstract = "This work presents a new method to discriminate face from non-face
images using Fourier descriptors. The first step of our approach
consists in applying a horizontal edge detection filter in the
input image, followed by the extraction of a 1D signal from the
computed edge map. Then we calculate the Fourier descriptors from
this signal and classify the image using statistical classifiers.
In order to improve our results, we applied a feature selection
algorithm. Preliminary performance assessment results have shown
that this approach is superior than traditional transform based
methods. Besides, these results showed that our method might be
used to develop a fast face detection system.",
