Patent attributes
A face detection method includes acquiring a video image sequence, performing a video shot boundary detection process on the video image sequence to determine whether a shot change exists in the video image sequence to obtain a first judgment result, and determining, when the first judgment result indicates that a shot change exists in the video image sequence, that face detection has failed. The present disclosure also provides a face detection device, which includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a video image sequence, a first detection unit configured to perform a video shot boundary detection process on the video image sequence to determine whether a shot change exists in the video image sequence to obtain a first judgment result, and a determination unit configured to determine, when the first judgment result indicates that a shot change exists in the video image sequence, that face detection has failed.
