Abstract

In this study, we propose a method for effectively detecting and recognizing the face in image using RBFNNs pattern classifier and HCbCr-based skin color feature. Skin color detection is computationally rapid and is robust to pattern variation for face detection, however, the objects with similar colors can be mistakenly detected as face. Thus, in order to enhance the accuracy of the skin detection, we take into consideration the combination of the H and CbCr components jointly obtained from both HSI and YCbCr color space. Then, the exact location of the face is found from the candidate region of skin color by detecting the eyes through the Haar-like feature. Finally, the face recognition is performed by using the proposed FCM-based RBFNNs pattern classifier. We show the results as well as computer simulation experiments carried out by using the image database of Cambridge ICPR.

본 연구에서는 HCbCr 색 특징과 RBFNNs 패턴분류기를 이용하여 얼굴영상을 효과적으로 검출하고 인식하기 위한 방법에 대해 제안한다. 피부색을 검출하는 것은 계산이 빠르고 형태 변형에 강인하여 얼굴을 검출하기에 유용하지만 유사한 색을 갖는 다른 물체를 잘못 검출하기도 한다. 따라서 피부색 검출의 정확도를 높이기 위하여 HSI 색공간과 YCbCr 색공간으로부터 각각 H요소와 CbCr요소를 추출하고 이를 결합하는 방법을 제안하였다. 그리고 각각의 피부색 후보 영역에 대하여 Haar-like 특징을 사용하여 눈을 검출함으로써 얼굴의 정확한 위치를 찾아냈다. 마지막으로 제안된 FCM 기반 RBFNNs 패턴분류기를 이용하여 얼굴 인식을 수행하였다. 또 Cambridge ICPR 영상 DB에 대하여 제안된 방법의 모의실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 제시하였다.
