Automatic Adaptive Center of Pupil Detection Using Face Detection and CDF Analysis
M Asadifard, Jamshid Shanbehzadeh · 2010
Abstract—This paper presents a novel adaptive algorithm to detect the center of pupil in frontal view faces. This algorithm, at first, employs the viola-Jones face detector to find the approximate location of face in an image. The knowledge of the face structure is exploited to detect the eye region. The histogram of the detected region is calculated and its CDF is employed to extract the eyelids and iris region in an adaptive way. The center of this region is considered as the pupil center. The experimental results show ninety one percent’s accuracy in detecting pupil center.
