Many current human face detection algorithmsmake implicit assumptions about the scale, orientation or viewpoint of faces in an image and exploit these constraints to detect and lo...
Face detection and tracking, through image sequences, are primary steps in many applications such as video surveillance, human computer interface, and expression analysis. Many cu...
In this paper we propose a robust text segmentation method in complex background. The proposed method first utilizes the K-means algorithm to decompose a detected text block into ...
Abstract. Mahalanobis distance has already proved its strength in human skin detection using a set of skin values. We present this work that uses automatic skin detection after an ...
This paper addresses the problem of text extraction from name card images with fanciful design containing complicated color background and reverse contrast regions. The proposed m...
