I have trained faces using opencv_trainedcascade.exe. I have a series of xml files for different stages. For each xml file has internal nodes and leafVlaues and one of them is shown below.
<?xml version="1.0"?>

My queries are (1)What do those stageThreshold, internalNodes and leafValues mean? (2)In actual face detection, how are they used in cascaded classifier, I read a few paper for Adaboost algorithm. But I don't understand quite well. Thanks
