Face detection method based on skin color segmentation and facial component localization
Yihu Yi, Daokui Qu, Fang Xu · 2010
In this paper, we designed a novel scheme integrating skin color segmentation and facial component localization to detect face. Briefly, we applied skin-color, heuristic rules and geometric information of facial components to build robust detector. Evaluated by our own facial images and videos with complicated illumination and background, our method has high performance, illumination independency as well as poses insensitivity, and obtains promising experimental results.
