Abstract
There is an increasing interest to specify standardized descriptions of various types of multimedia information. This description will be associated with the content itself, to allow fast and efficient searching for material that is of interest to the user. This effort is being conducted within the activities of the new standard MPEG-7. It is in this context that Face Detection and Recognition acquire a renovated interest and there is a need to develop new tools that may help the user that browse a data base or a video sequence to find specific persons. The objective of this paper is to provide an updated information of the related activities done in the Hypermedia ACTS European project.
