This paper presents a general, trainable system for object detection in unconstrained,
cluttered scenes. The system derives much of its power from a representation that describes …

This paper describes a new method to detect faces in color images based on the fuzzy
theory. We make two fuzzy models to describe the skin color and hair color, respectively. In …

We present a trainable system for detecting frontal and near-frontal views of faces in still
gray images using Support Vector Machines (SVMs). We first consider the problem of …

The ability to detect the locations of facial features is useful for a variety of applications.
These applications include automatic facial morphing and war**, expression recognition …

Automatic detection of human faces is one of the most difficult problems in pattern
recognition. In many practical applications (eg personal identification using photo-IDs), face …

This work presents a new approach to automatic face location on gray-scale static images
with complex backgrounds. In a first stage our technique approximately detects the image …

This thesis describes an effort to construct a scene understanding system that is able to
analyze the content of real images. While constructing the system we had to provide …

We detect facial features and then circumscribe each facial feature with the smallest
rectangle possible by using vertical and horizontal gray value projections of pixels. The …

Saturation here refers to electronic saturation of the camera sensors which produces clipped
colors, and not the purity of color as in the hue-saturation and value scale. Saturated images …

The appearance of skin colors in the images depends among other things, on the camera,
the calibration of the camera, and the illumination under which the image was taken. In this …
