Skin Color Pixel Classification for Face Detection with Hijab and Niqab
Skin color pixel classification in color spaces with respect to threshold values of color components has been widely used in face detection algorithms. Color based face detection becomes difficult when faces are covered with hijab or niqab due to effect of fabric color. Previous studies show that, a...
