HIGH ACCURATE LOW COMPLEX FACE DETECTION BASED ON KL TRANSFORM AND YCBCR GAUSSIAN MODEL

This paper presents a skin color model for face detection based on YCbCr Gauss model and KL transform. The simple gauss model and the region model of the skin color are designed in both KL color space and YCbCr space according to clustering. Skin regions are segmented using optimal threshold value o...

description This paper presents a skin color model for face detection based on YCbCr Gauss model and KL transform. The simple gauss model and the region model of the skin color are designed in both KL color space and YCbCr space according to clustering. Skin regions are segmented using optimal threshold value obtained from adaptive algorithm. The segmentation results are then used to eliminate likely skin region in the gauss-likelihood image. Different morphological processes are then used to eliminate noise from binary image. In order to locate the face, the obtained regions are grouped out with simple detection algorithms. The proposed algorithm works well for complex background and many faces.
