Dr. Mike Pound explains the mechanics of the classic Viola-Jones face detection algorithm.

Deep learning is used for everything these days, but this face detection algorithm is so neat its still in use today. Dr Mike Pound on the Viola/Jones algorithm.

On “It seems Face detection was done in 2001 as well”

Computerphile has a good video on the Viola Jones algorithm.
