Abstract
An adaptive approach for skin color detection is presented based on image filtering with dynamically computed thresholds. Two dimensional hue/saturation histograms are analysed and partitioned into rectangular blocks. For each block, simple parameters are computed such as: 1st order moments, standard deviations and simple ratios. A multilayered perceptron is trained using a set of images containing both skin and non-skin blocks. For each frame in a video sequence, each block is assigned a probability of being skin and the parameters of the winning block, if any, are used for image thresholding. |
