A Face Segmentation Algorithm Using Window

윈도우를 사용한 얼굴영역의 추출 기법

In this paper, we propose a region-based segmentation algorithm to extract human face area using a window function and neural networks. Furthermore, we apply the erosion and dilation to remove small error areas. By applying the window function, it is possible to reduce error. In particular, false segmentation of the eye and the lip can be considerably reduced. Experiments show promising results and it is expected that the Proposed method can be applied to video conference and still image compression.
