Comment 113 for bug 507511

Haar training is not something of interest, because it doesn't provide ability to update on the fly. Unless you can think of a way that can be done because haartraining learns from scratch everytime. So you need to write updater from scratch and do some clever hacking of retrieving previous states from learning.

So we are interested in refining face detection first. When you say it is 99% good, it also has high rate of Type II errors, identifying something as a face when its not, which is bad. That is what needs refining. This problem arises when you use real photos, because need to specify feature size in the identification.

Or you can think of a better face detection mechanism
