Color Constancy for RGB and Multispectral Images

The problem of inferring the light color for a scene is called Illuminant Estimation. This step forms the first task in many workflows in the larger task of discounting the effect of the color of the illuminant, which is called Color Constancy. Illuminant Estimation is typically used as a pre-processing step in many computer vision tasks. In this thesis, we tackle this problem for both RGB and ...

Face Detection in Still Color Images Using Skin Color Information

In this paper, we develop two face detection methods in color images. These methods rely on a two step process. First, we detect human skin regions using Bayes rule in color images. To avoid the effect of brightness included in the RGB color space, we propose to model the skin color in the chromatic and pure color space YCrCb, which separates luminance and chrominance components. A Gaussian pro...

Color Atlas of Dermatology

evaluating people’s personalities. Referencing the works of modern researchers, Barondes, himself a professor of psychiatry, summarizes important findings in a guidebook intended for those outside the field. Making Sense of People is aimed at the general audience, and at 240 pages, it is a light and engaging read. The book is divided into three parts, each several chapters. Part One attempts to...

Robust Skin Color Segmentation Using a 2D Plane of RGB Color Space

This research features a new method for skin color segmentation using a 2D plane in the RGB color space. The RGB color values of the input color image do not need to be converted into HSI or YIQ color coordinates that have popularly been used for color segmentation. We have observed an important fact that skin colors in the RGB color space are approximately distributed in a linear fashion. Base...
