Efficient Image Classification using Data Mining

Skin region detection plays an important role in a variety of applications such as face detection, adult image filtering and gesture recognition. We present some definitions about digital imaging or numerical imaging and also the several image preprocessing and normalization. In this paper, we will tackle with two sub-problems which is the skin detection and face detection. We will propose skin detection method and some realized works in this area. Thus, we will detail the methods proposed for the face detection and the related studies found in literature. We will finish, by showing and analyzing the results obtained from tests made on a base of colored images with a complex background and make comparison to similar works which demonstrate that our algorithm achieve good accuracy.
