I am using OpenCV for face and eye detection. To start with, I tested the sample program in OpenCV/Samples/c/facedetect.cpp. I gave two images as an input to this facedetect.exe - one is full and the other is cropped face of the same person. Now, the facedetect.cpp works fine with full image whereas it is not even detecting the face with the cropped image as input.
Although the cropped image contains only the face which is cropped using OpenCV face detector, In some bad cases I will get only mouth or lips or only part of the face. So my requirement here is to check both the eyes are there in an image or not.
The below are the two sample pictures one is full image where I get proper output:
The below is the image where I need to detect the eyes using facedetect.cpp:
So my question here is how to detect the eyes in the cropped image?
The below is the code of sample facedetect.cpp
#include "opencv2/objdetect/objdetect.hpp"
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include "opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp"
#include <iostream>

The original example detects faces first by cascade.detectMultiScale
, then finds eyes in the detected faces by nestedCascade.detectMultiScale
.
If you only need to detect the eyes, just use nestedCascade.detectMultiScale
on the full image.
