چکیده

Skin region detection plays an important role in a variety of applications such as face detection, adult image filtering and gesture recognition. To improve the accuracy and speed of skin detection, in this paper, we describe a fast adaptive skin detection approach that works on DCT domain of JPEG image and classifies each image block according to its color and texture properties. Main contributions of our skin detector are: 1) It jointly takes into consideration the color and texture characteristics of human skin for classification and can adaptively control the detection threshold according to image content; 2) It requires no full decompression of JPEG compressed images and directly derives color and texture features of each image block from DCT coefficients. Comparisons with other existing skin detection techniques demonstrate that our algorithm can compute very fast and achieve good accuracy.

نهان‌کاوی در تصاویر JPEG بر مبنای دسته‌بندی ویژگی‌های آماری و تصمیم‌گیری دو مرحله‌ای

Abstract In this paper, we propose a comprehensive steganalysis scheme for JPEG images. In this method, the optimized features which can interpret high distinction between cover and stego images are extracted from images. These features have been selected after a careful study on modifications caused by different steganography algorithms on statistical characteristics of images. Furthermore, us...

A New Fast and Efficient HMM-Based Face Recognition System Using a 7-State HMM Along With SVD Coefficients

In this paper, a new Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based face recognition system is proposed. As a novel point despite of five-state HMM used in pervious researches, we used 7-state HMM to cover more details. Indeed we add two new face regions, eyebrows and chin, to the model. As another novel point, we used a small number of quantized Singular Values Decomposition (SVD) coefficients as feature...

Improved Approaches to Steganalysis and Seam-carved Forgery Detection in JPEG Images

Steganalysis and forgery detection in image forensics are generally investigated separately. We have designed a method targeting the detection of both steganography and seam-carved forgery in JPEG images. We analyze the neighboring joint density of the DCT coefficients, and reveal the difference between untouched image and the modified version. In realistic detection, untouched image and the mo...

Adaptive resolution vector quantization technique and basic codebook design method for compound image compression

In order to increase the performance of image compression by Vector Quantization (VQ), we propose a systematic codebook design method without using learning sequences for 4x4 and 2x2 pixel blocks. According to the method, the codebook can be applied to all kinds of images and exhibits equivalent compression performance to the specific codebooks created individually by conventional learning meth...

A New Algorithm for Skin Lesion Border Detection in Dermoscopy Images

Background: With advances in medical imaging systems, digital dermoscopy has become one of the major imaging modalities in the analysis of skin lesions. Thus, automated segmentation or border detection has a great impact on the subsequent steps of skin cancer computer-aided diagnosis using demoscopy images. Since dermoscopy images suffer from artifacts such as shading and hair, there is a need ...
