| Abstract(in English) | This paper describes a fast and robust method for estimating eye regions from facial images based on the fact that eye regions are usually darker than other regions. This method extracts eye regions by emphasizing facial images using a minimum filter. Precise eye regions are extracted from the result of eye region extraction using an active contour model. We applied the proposed method to eighty cases of real facial images taken under a variety of environment. The experimental result showed that this method could estimate 74% of eye regions in input images correctly. This method proved promising for estimating eye regons from various facial images. |
