An Automatic Face Detection System for RGB Images
We propose a robust face detection approach that works for digital color images. Our automatic detection method is based on image skin regions, therefore a skin-based segmentation of RGB images is provided first. Then, we decide for each skin region if it represents a human face or not, using a set of candidate criteria, an edge detection process, a correlation based technique and a threshold-based method. A high face detection rate is obtained using the proposed method
Segmentation of images by color features: a survey
En este articulo se hace la revisión del estado del arte sobre la segmentación de imagenes de colorImage segmentation is an important stage for object recognition. Many methods have been proposed in the last few years for grayscale and color images. In this paper, we present a deep review of the state of the art on color image segmentation methods; through this paper, we explain the techniques based on edge detection, thresholding, histogram-thresholding, region, feature clustering and neural networks. Because color spaces play a key role in the methods reviewed, we also explain in detail the most commonly color spaces to represent and process colors. In addition, we present some important applications that use the methods of image segmentation reviewed. Finally, a set of metrics frequently used to evaluate quantitatively the segmented images is shown
