| Abstract(in English) | In this paper we propose an algorithm to detect faces in a color image with complex background. The algorithm models faces by upright ellipses. And, inside each ellipse, a hair region and a skin region are defined. Generating ellipses, the algorithm computes a score for each ellipse. The score is given by the sum of three terms. The first term measures the fit of the boundary of the hair region to the edge map. The second term measures the fit of the skin region to the color map. The third term measures the fit of the hair region to the intensity map. And, the algorithm selects the candidates of faces from the generated ellipses according to nonincreasing order of their scores. |
