OpenCV: what is the difference between these 2 haar cascade data sets?

I have seen there are 2 different Haar Cascade datasets in OpenCV. For an example, take a look at haarcascade_upperbody.xml and haarcascade_mcs_upperbody.xml. what is this new mcs thing? The only difference I can monitor is that haarcascade_mcs_upperbody.xml is providing a way better results than the other one.

So, can someone please explain me the difference between these 2 types? When training my own datasets, how can I select between these 2?
