please, help me !
i am new to Image processing. i have few doubts in this area, first, when we extract a parts of a face image (say, Eyes, Nose etc.,) what we actually get? is that matrix with pixel values? i have read some good papers, but i could not find the process of extraction (Algorithm). second, What is a feature vector? is it row sum? or mean values of pixels? I have no idea about these things. please some one help me. most of them are saying Computer vision system toolbox, i have installed it. it has some predefined functions but i want to know how it works?
Is there any book which have details of these things.
