Abstract:
Features of human skin in HSV color space are widely applied in the area of image retrieval based on content. H is selected as the basic recognition parameter because its value has a narrow range for the skin color and can keep stable while the illumination intensity or the curvature of skin surface is changing. Rules of parameters with the change of illumination in HSV color space are studied. It is firstly found that the mean of saturation and value (S V)/2 can keep stable when the illumination intensity is changed or the skin surface is inflected, and (S V)/2 changes with skin color, but the tendency of change is contrary to that of H. Therefore, (S V)/H can be used as a new recognition parameter which can enhance HSV ability to recognize human skin.
