A Comparative Study of Skin-Color Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we report the results of a comparative study on skin-color models generally used for facial region location. These include two 2D Gaussian models developed in normalized RGB and HSV color spaces respectively, a 1D lookup table model of hue histogram, and an adaptive 3D threshold box model. Also, we present a new model called “adaptive hue lookup table”. The model is developed by introducing the so-called “Continuously Adaptive Mean Shift” (Camshift) technique into a traditional hue lookup table method. With the introduction of Camshift, the lookup table is able to adaptively adjust its parameters to fit the illumination conditions of different test images. In the experiments reported here, we compare the proposed method with the four typical skin-color filters in the scenarios of different human races and illuminations. The obtained results indicate that the proposed method reaches the best balance between false detection and detect rate.

متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part II: Finite Element Approach
ABSTRACT- Mechanical damage degrades fruit quality in the chain from production to the consumption. Damage is due to static, impact and vibration loads during processes such as harvesting, transportation, sorting and bulk storage. In the present study finite element (FE) models were used to simulate the process of static bruising for apple fruits by contact of the fruit with a hard surface. Thr...

متن کاملRegion based elimination of noise pixels towards optimized classifier models for skin pixel detection
The extraction of the skin pixels in a human image and rejection of non-skin pixels is called the skin segmentation. Skin pixel detection is the process of extracting the skin pixels in a human image which is typically used as a pre-processing step to extract the face regions from human image. In past, there are several computer vision approaches and techniques have been developed for skin pixe...
