According to support vector machines(SVMs),for those geometric approach based classification
methods,examples close to the class boundary usually are more informative than others.Taking face detection as an
example,this paper addresses the problem of enhancing given training set and presents a nonlinear method to tackle
the problem effectively.Based on SVM and improved reduced set algorithm (IRS),the method generates new
examples lying close to the face/non—face class boundary to enlarge the original dataset and hence improve its
sample distribution.The new IRS algorithm has greatly improved the approximation performance of the original
reduced set(RS)method by embedding a new distance metric called image Euclidean distance(IMED)into the
keme1 function.To verify the generalization capability of the proposed method,the enhanced dataset is used to train
an AdaBoost.based face detector and test it on the MIT+CMU frontal face test set.The experimental results show
that the origina
