Real-time face detection algorithm Real-time face detection

locating faces in images and videos finds not only the face regions precise locations of the facial components (eyes and lips)

Simple quadratic polynomial model skin pixels lips

Removes the falsely extracted components verifying with rules derived from the spatial and geometrical

relationships of facial components.

Experimental results both accuracy and speed for detecting faces

Rules for skin-color region extraction 1/3

The purpose reduce the searching time for possible face regions

Alleviate the influence of environment light brightness adopts the chromatic color coordinate for color representation

Filter out the non-skin

Rules for lips and eyes detection Higher extraction speed

The discrimination function should be computationally efficient The detection of lip pixels can be done in parallel with the

detection of skin pixels in one scan of the image or video frame.

Eye components are extracted histogram-equalized grayscale image threshold operation (Threshold =20)

Performance evaluation The implemented system has two modes of

operations. detect faces in video frames captured from a PC

camera in real time. off-line mode that is designed to detect faces in still

images.

Among these 1000 images 815 images with the dimension of 320 X240 185 images from WWW.

Concluding remarks The light condition must be normal.

light compensation/correction pre-processing

The facial components must appear on the images as clearly as possible developing more improved component-based

detection verification process for incomplete facial

components.
