Abstract
A method and an apparatus for extracting a facial feature and a method and an apparatus for recognizing a face are provided, in which the apparatus for extracting a facial feature may extract facial landmarks from a current input image, sample a skin region and a facial component region based on the extracted facial landmarks, generate a probabilistic model associated with the sampled skin region and the facial component region, extract the facial component region from a face region included in the input image using the generated probabilistic model, and extract facial feature information from the extracted facial component region.
