Study of fully-automatic red-eye removal algorithm

“Red-eye effect” is a phenomenon that when a flashgun is used, the center of pupils appears unnaturally reddish. The automatic red-eye removal system can detect and correct red-eye automatically without manual intervention. First, faces are detected using Face Detection based on AdaBoost Algorithm, then the red-eyes are located using kinds of image processing method. At last the located red-eyes are finished corrected. The experimental results indicate that, the system can remove the red-eye automatically and effectively in the digital photo and has good robustness and rapidity.
