Those lines are expressed using pixels and each of those pixels have a
colour.
A segment detector could detect lines all over a picture, but it needs to
be thresholded to lines significant enough. Lines that are too subtle have
to be left out. In dark faces, or à contre-jour, how does Haar's algorithm
figure out that lines inside of the face are more significant than those
outside ?
