Abstract

An algorithm for the automatic features detection in 2D color images of human faces is presented. It first identifies the eyes by means of a template matching technique, a neural network classifier, and a distance measure. It proceeds localizing lips and nose using a non-linear edge detector and color information. The method is scale-independent, works on images of either frontal, rotated or slightly tilted faces, and does not require any manual setting or operator intervention.
