Face Detection Based on Skin Color and AdaBoost Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Skin color segmentation and AdaBoost algorithm always play important roles in various face detection methods. To combine the two smoothly, this paper investigates face detection methods based on skin color feature and AdaBoost algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed methods can effectively reduce the false alarms.
