Chen Ming Yan, Zhengqun Wang, Xue Song Zhou · 2017

In this paper, we have completed the detection of human faces in a frame of video through the establishment of the skin color model. In order to reduce the influence of illumination on face detection, the method of light compensation is used before the face detection. Then, the captured image is transformed into the YCbCr color space with good color clustering characteristics. Finally, the skin color model is created by the elliptical skin color model in the YCbCr color space, and the traditional morphological processing by opening and then closing, is improved into the morphological processing by opening and then dilating and closing. Finally, the face area is identified.
