Abstract
Face detection is one of the challenging problems in image processing. This paper proposes a novel technique for detecting faces in color images using skin color model algorithm combined with skin likely-hood, skin Segmentation, Morphological operation and Template matching. Color images with skin color in the chromatic and pure color space YCrCb, which separates luminance and chrominance components. A Gaussian probability density is estimated from skin samples, collected from different ethnic groups, via the maximum-likelihood criterion. Adaptive thresholding for segmentation to localize the faces within the detected skin regions. Then, mathematical morphological operators are used to remove noisy regions and fill holes in the skin-color region, so we can extract candidate human face regions. These system is achieve high detection accuracy, high detection speed and reduce the false detecting rate.
