Abstract

See full text

A method of labeling pixels in an image that represent human skin are detected and one or more regions in the image are identified. Each region may include all or a portion of a human face. Pixels that represent each face in the image are identified using the pixels that represent skin and the regions that include faces of the people, thereby identifying a position of each face in the image. A face mask and a torso map corresponding to each face is determined using determined face positions. The extracted face masks and the torso maps are used to refine a skin map. A person or people map is determined using the skin map and the rough body map.
