  • Abstract
    This paper describes face detection method using skin color information. Processing color information is faster than processing other facial features. There are different color models present for skin color segmentation like RGB, CMY, YUV, YIQ, YCbCr, YCgCr, HSI, etc. But to choose best option among these models for efficient skin color segmentation is difficult task. In this paper we have explored and analyse three most popular color models-YCbCr, YCgCr and HSI for face detection.
