Hand segmentation is the basis of many vision-based hand gesture applications in human computer interaction (HCI). This paper proposes a novel method of skin color weighted dispar...
Face detection has many interesting applications such as a face recognition system, a surveillance system, and videolimage indexing system. In this paper, we propose a new method ...
This paper addresses our proposed method to automatically locate the person's face from a given image that consists of a head-and-shoulders view of the person and a complex b...
Techniques for color-based tracking of faces or hands often assume a static skin color model. However, skin color perceived by a camera can change when lighting changes. In common...

This paper proposes a robust face tracking algorithm based on the CONDENSATION algorithm that uses skin color and facial shape as observation measures. Two independent trackers are...
Skin color is a useful means for human face detection. In this paper, we propose an efficient color compensation method for skin color segmentation under varying lighting conditio...
Abstract. We discuss the face detection method by using skin information. Skin color has proven to be a useful and robust cue for face detection, localization and tracking. Numerou...
Hand detection and tracking play important roles in human computer interaction (HCI) applications, as well as surveillance. We propose a self initializing and self correcting trac...
The performance of face verification systems has steadily improved over the last few years, mainly focusing on models rather than on feature processing. State-of-the-art methods o...
