Face plays a core part in distinguishing and identifying a person and hence face detection is much sought after. Other factors, such as security have also provided impetus to research in face identification. Though, other detection techniques such as iris scanning, finger prints scanning are also a way to identify a person but the problem it contains is the fact that it requires a dedicated hardware system and human resource for it. Such problems are not faced in face identification as face is detected through passive resources that do not require involvement from the user side.
