DOIs:10.2015/IJIRMF/202504044     |     Paper ID: IJIRMF202504044This paper presents a comprehensive review of face detection and feature extraction methods, focusing on various techniques employed in the field. The review discusses the most widely used techniques, such as skin color-based methods, histogram analysis, Haar-like features, and machine learning algorithms. Furthermore, we provide a detailed comparison of different approaches based on their performance, accuracy, and real-time application suitability. The paper also outlines future research directions for advancing the effectiveness of face detection systems in diverse applications, such as security, healthcare, and human-computer interaction.
