Detection of faces from video files with different file formats

Face detection is the primary approach of all fundamental problems of human computer interaction system (HCIS). This paper evaluates the performance of detection system on single face from stored videos that are stored in different file formats. Stored videos contain raw homemade datasets as well as ready-made datasets. This proposed work concludes detection percentage of face detection system in different video formats. The implementation is done in two phases. The raw homemade dataset is tested on .3gp, .avi, .mov,.mp4 and a ready-made dataset is tested on .wmv, .m4v, .asf, .mpg file formats. The coding part for face detection has been done in MATLAB R2013a. The detection of faces from video file was 72.79 % for homemade dataset and 82.78% for ready-made dataset.
