Stages:

1. Getting started with OpenCV
   • tutorial ​http://www.cognotics.com/opencv/servo_2007_series/index.html
   • examples
     
     • ​http://www.cognotics.com/opencv/downloads/camshift_wrapper/index.html
     • fixed bugs in these examples in order to run them.

2. Selection of Face Recognition algorithms
   • PCA (Principal component analysis)
     ​http://www.cs.otago.ac.nz/cosc453/student_tutorials/principal_components.pdf
   • ICA (Independent Component Analysis)
     ​http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/wrapper.jsp?arnumber=1058079

3. Implementation
   • face detection and image manipulation using OpenCv? functions.
   • serial and parallel implementation for PCA using C, OpenCv? and OpenMP.
   • serial and parallel implementation for ICA using Matlab and C wrappers.
     • starting point for ICA's serial code : ​http://mplab.ucsd.edu/~marni/code.html
