Automatic Human Face Counting in Digital Color Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
Automatic human face detection is considered as the initial process of any fully automatic system that analyzes the information contained in human faces (e.g., identity, gender, expression, age, race and pose). In this paper, color segmentation is used as a first step in the human face detection process followed by grouping likely face regions into clusters of connected pixels. Median filtering is then performed to eliminate the small clusters and the resulting blobs are matched against a face pattern (ellipse) subjected to constraints for rejecting non-face blobs. The system was implemented and validated for images with different formats, sizes, number of people, and complexity of the image background. Key-words: Face detection, color segmentation, face pattern (ellipse).

Automatic Colorization of Grayscale Images Using Generative Adversarial Networks
Automatic colorization of gray scale images poses a unique challenge in Information Retrieval. The goal of this field is to colorize images which have lost some color channels (such as the RGB channels or the AB channels in the LAB color space) while only having the brightness channel available, which is usually the case in a vast array of old photos and portraits. Having the ability to coloriz...
