Detecting Faces in Color Images Using an Adaptive Color Model and Salient Features
نویسنده
چکیده
Face detection has many interesting applications such as a face recognition system, a surveillance system, and videolimage indexing system. In this paper, we propose a new method of face detection using an adaptive skin color model and salient features. First, we detect skin color segments by adjusting threshold window in HueSaturation(HS) subspace based on the distribution of color histogram. From the detected skin color segments, salient feature points like eyes for face are extracted. After that, the possible eye feature points are compared with normalized eye features which are obtained from the training data. At this template matching stage, we use a modified Hausdorff distance. Finally, eye feature points are selected and then face segments are determined. Experimental results are presented.

A Saliency Detection Model via Fusing Extracted Low-level and High-level Features from an Image
Saliency regions attract more human’s attention than other regions in an image. Low- level and high-level features are utilized in saliency region detection. Low-level features contain primitive information such as color or texture while high-level features usually consider visual systems. Recently, some salient region detection methods have been proposed based on only low-level features or hig...

متن کاملGraph-based Visual Saliency Model using Background Color
Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...
