Editor's Note: Popular File 2013

This program is the clone of 'Face Detection System' in MATLAB
but instead of Neural Networks, It is based on Support Vector Machine (SVM)

Face Detection System (Neural Network)

1- copy all files and directories to the MATLAB's work folder
* In order to run the program you must have Image Processing and Neural Networks Toolboxes

2- find the file named "main.m"

3- Double click on this file or type "main" in the command window

4- a menu will be shown . click on "Create SVM" and wait until the program is done with the training.

5- click on "Test on Photos". A dialog box will be appeared. Select a .jpg photo

6- Wait until the program detects some faces
