The appearance of a face image is severely affected by illumination conditions that hinder the automatic face recognition process. To recognize faces under varying illuminations, ...
Segmentation through seeded region growing is widely used because it is fast, robust and free of tuning parameters. However, the seeded region growing algorithm requires an automat...
Ear detection from a profile face image is an important step in many applications including biometric recognition. But accurate and rapid detection of the ear for real-time appli...
