An efficient color compensation scheme for skin color segmentation

چکیده
Skin color is a useful means for human face detection. In this paper, we propose an efficient color compensation method for skin color segmentation under varying lighting conditions. One of the major problems of using skin color is that a face region may not be detected under poor or uneven lighting conditions. Our approach considers the distribution of the color components of skin pixels and the color response of capturing machines under different illuminations. Experimental results show that this algorithm can improve the performance of face segmentation under poor or strong lighting conditions.

Robust Real-time Human Hand Localization by Self-Organizing Color Segmentation
In Proc. of ICCV99 Workshop RATFG-RTS, Greece, 1999 This paper describes a robust tracking algorithm used to localize human hand in video sequences. The localization system relies mainly on an automatic color-based segmentation scheme combined with the motion cue. An automatic self-organizing clustering algorithm is proposed to learn the color clusters unsupervisedly in the HSI space without sp...
