A Novel Face Segmentation Algorithm from a Video Sequence for Real-Time Face Recognition

The first step in an automatic face recognition system is to localize the face region in a cluttered background and carefully segment the face from each frame of a video sequence. In this paper, we propose a fast and efficient algorithm for segmenting a face suitable for recognition from a video seq...
