Human skin color distribution is relatively compact in a color space, and it changes from frame to frame following illumination variations, also it is subject to camouflage interruption in complicated background for skin segmentation. This paper mainly talks about face detection based on skin color feature in complicated background. We assume that skin pixels in each frame are closed together a...

In this paper, an efficient and accurate method for human color skin recognition in color images with different light intensity will proposed .first we transform inputted color image from RGB color space to YCBCR color space and then accurate and appropriate decision on that if it is in human color skin or not will be adopted according to YCBCR color space using fuzzy, adaptive fuzzy neural net...

This paper describes a new method to detect faces in color images based on the fuzzy theory. We make two fuzzy models to describe the skin color and hair color respectively. In these models, we use a perceptually uniform color space to describe the color information to increase the accuracy and stableness. We use the two models to extract the skin color regions and the hair color regions, and t...

This paper presents a skin color model for face detection based on YCbCr Gauss model and KL transform. The simple gauss model and the region model of the skin color are designed in both KL color space and YCbCr space according to clustering. Skin regions are segmented using optimal threshold value obtained from adaptive algorithm. The segmentation results are then used to eliminate likely skin ...

Face detection is one of the most useful research topics in computer vision. In the past several decades, there has been noticeable and successful achievement in face detection. However, it is still a challenge to obtain both low computational complexity and high detection efficiency. The main problem in existing skin color based face detection algorithms is that different illumination conditio...

In this paper, we present the application of the fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm to the skin-color segmentation problem. We address the problem of identifying skin-color and we adapt a spatial data mining method to this task and integrate with a segmentation method to identify significant skin-color regions in an image. The proposed algorithm is able to take into account both the distributio...

Much attractiveness research has focused on face shape. The role of masculinity (which for adults is thought to be a relatively stable shape cue to developmental testosterone levels) in male facial attractiveness has been examined, with mixed results. Recent work on the perception of skin color (a more variable cue to current health status) indicates that increased skin redness, yellowness, and...

Vitamin D deficiency in pregnancy has negative clinical consequences, such as associations with glucose intolerance, and has been shown to be distributed differently in certain ethnic groups. In some countries, a difference in the rate of vitamin D deficiency was detected in pregnant women depending on their skin color. We examined the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL) in women in ...

One of the outstanding features of polycythemia vera is the color of the skin. Clinical descriptions employ the terms brick red, congestive facies, cyanosis and erythrosis. Vaquez, who reported the first observed case of this disease, noted cyanosis as the prevailing tint. Osler thought that the color change was not that of cyanosis but congestion or redness. Since the microscopic investigation...
