HUMAN FACE DETECTION AND TRACKING IN COLOR IMAGE AND VIDEO
Keywords:
-Abstract
Face detection and tracking in a video scene forms the first step in building a practical face recognition
system. In this paper a method to detect and track human faces in color image and video is described. The face
detection technique based on skin color is used to detect face(s) in the first frame. These detected faces are tracked
over subsequent frames by using the modified mean shift algorithm. The method is simple and powerful. The system
can detect and track multiple faces.
