Depends on what you mean by "a" person. There is no face recognition (where your image matches a specific person in your database) built into MATLAB or any of the toolboxes, only face detection ( any human face, not caring who) in the Computer Vision System Toolbox. See this page: Face Detection by Computer Vision System Toolbox for face detection (all faces, we don't care who).

If you can't find code, you'll have to write your own. You can use papers that have been published here: VisionBib

If you have the Computer Vision System Toolbox, you can use the vision.CascadeObjectDetector to detect faces. The linked page contains code examples.

Additionally, you can look into this example as well:

Face Detection and Tracking

Hope this helps.

[nitesh mittal]

can u tell the alternate for vision.cascadeobjectdetector... because it is not working on my matlab

[Walter Roberson]

vision.CascadeObjectDetector not vision.cascadeobjectdetector

You need at least R2012a for it.
