Abstract:Presenting a method of face detection based on skin color detection and eyes localization, this paper introduces a method of color balancing to normalize the color image called "reference white". It extracts skin color in the HSV color space and detects the candidate human face. It uses the morphologic filter to denoise. After iris localization it introduces Susan operator to localize the corners of eyes, then implements the localization of eyes accurately. The experiments demonstrate that the method in this paper can implement face detection and eyes localization commendably, especially in the image of face circumrotation and illumination exceptional.
