Frontal-view Face Detection in The Presence of Skin-Tone Regions Using a New Symmetry Approach

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for detecting frontalview faces in color images is proposed. The proposed algorithm has a special task; it detects faces in the presence of skin-tone regions such as human body, clothes, and background. Firstly, a pixel based color classifier is applied to segme...
