Fusion of Multi Color Space for Human Skin Region Segmentation
Keywords:
Skin color segmentation, color space, control limits, YCbCr- YU'V.Abstract
This paper proposes a technique to extract human
skin color regions from the color images based on combination
of both RGB and YU'V color spaces. Since skin pixels can vary
with ambient light, to find the range of values for which most
skin pixels fall in the skin color space becomes a hard task.
Therefore, other techniques based on normalized rg, HSV, YUV,
YIQ, YCbCr, RGB, YCbCr-YU'V color spaces are presented
and compared in this paper in order to select the appropriate
control limits for the purpose of skin color segmentation. From
the experimental results, the skin detection results obtained by
the proposed technique based on RGB-YU'V color model is
found to be the most appropriate color model compared to
other methods.
