Skin Colour Imaging That Is Insensitive to Lighting Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In previous human skin models, it has been suggested that the colour of human skin is mostly determined by the concentration of melanin in the epidermal layer combined with the concentration of hemoglobin in the dermal layer. The colour of facial skin changes significantly with changes in the light incident upon it. In this paper we propose a method of normalizing the skin tones of human faces that eliminates the effects of illumination, preserving the skin colour and allowing variations related to melanin concentration only. The method assumes the illumination is reasonably well modelled as blackbody radiation.

Colour analysis and verification of CCTV images under different lighting conditions
Colour information is not faithfully maintained by a CCTV imaging chain. Since colour can play an important role in identifying objects it is beneficial to be able to account accurately for changes to colour introduced by components in the chain. With this information it will be possible for law enforcement agencies and others to work back along the imaging chain to extract accurate colour info...
متن کاملUser Localisation for Visually-Based Human-Machine-Interaction
physiologically motivated (see [15]) colour space corresponds to the deviation in illumination from typical daylight. By a process, the cluster is transformed so that its elongation will be along the achromatic axis. So we can ensure equal colour sensations under different lighting conditions (see 1st and 2nd figure below). The skin colour classification takes place within the RGB-colour-space ...
متن کاملMeasuring The Quality Of Natural Lighting In A Building With Double Skin Façade (Dsf)
Lately, a double skin façade (DSF) has been increasingly popular as an aesthetic and shading device. A façade with a secondary skin is employed in buildings to let natural light flow into the building without glare and heat. The purpose of this study is to examine the performance of secondary skin in buildings and to investigate the level of natural lighting in buildings that meets visual comfo...
متن کاملAnalysis of skin recovery from mechanical indentation using diffuse lighting and digital imaging
Skin behaves as a viscoelastic material, having mechanical properties composed of elastic and fluid components. Upon indentation, the fibres are stretched and fluid displaced from the compressed region. The rate of recovery from this imprint is therefore dependent on the hydration and elasticity of the skin. A reliable measurement could be applied to the assessment of clinical conditions such a...
