“…Three benchmark algorithms were used: the classifier-based detection algorithm (Algorithm 1) [ 7 ], the improved Haar feature–based detection algorithm (Algorithm 2) [ 8 , 9 ], and the low binary pattern (LBP)-based detection algorithm (Algorithm 3) [ 6 ]. For an objective evaluation, the proposed algorithm calculated by precision, recall, and F 1 scores [ 14 , 15 ], which are derived as follows: where TP , FP , and FN denote the number of true positives, false positives, and false negatives that were detected, respectively. Using these values, the F 1 score was calculated, for which a value of one indicates perfect accuracy.…”
