    Contrast compensation for back-lit and front-lit color face images via fuzzy logic classification and image illumination analysis
    (2008-07-12) Tsai, Chun-Ming; Yeh, Zong-Mu; Wang, Yuan-Fang
    Conventional contrast enhancement methods have two shortcomings. First, most of them do not produce satisfactory enhancement results for face images with back-lit or front-lit. Second, most of them need transformation functions and parameters which are specified manually. Thus, this paper proposes an automatic and parameter-free contrast compensation algorithm for color face images. This method includes: RGB color space is transformed to YIQ color space. Fuzzy logic is used to classify the color images into back-lit, normal-lit, and front-lit categories. Image illumination analysis is used to analyze the image distribution. The input image is compensated by piecewise linear based compensation method. Finally, the compensation image is transformed back to RGB color space. This novel compensation method is automatic and parameter-free. Our experiments included back-lit and front-lit images. Experiment results show that the performance of the proposed method is better than other available methods in visual perception measurements.

    Contrast compensation by fuzzy classification and image illumination analysis for back-lit and front-lit color face images.
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010-08-01) Tsai, Chun-Ming; Yeh, Zong-Mu
    Conventional contrast enhancement methods have two shortcomings. First, most of them do not produce satisfactory enhancement results for face images with back-lit or front-lit. Second, most of them need transformation functions and parameters which are specified manually. Thus, this paper proposes an automatic and parameter-free contrast compensation algorithm for skin detection in color face images. This method includes following steps: First, RGB color space is transformed to YIQ color space. Second, fuzzy logic is used to classify the color images into three categories: back-lit, normal-lit, and front-lit. Third, image illumination analysis is used to analyze the image distribution. Fourth, the input image is compensated by piecewise linear based enhancement method. Finally, the compensation image is transformed back to RGB color space. Our experiments included various color and gray face images. Experiment results show that the performance of the proposed compensation method is better than other available methods in skin detection and visual perception measurements.

    Contrast Enhancement by Automatic and Parameter-Free Piecewise Linear Transformation for Color Images
    (IEEE Consumer Electronics Society, 2008-05-01) Tsai, Chun-Ming; Yeh, Zong-Mu
    Conventional contrast enhancement methods have four shortcomings. First, most of them need transformation functions and parameters which are specified manually. Second, most of them are application-oriented methods. Third, most of them are performed on gray level images. Fourth, the histogram equalization (HE) based enhancement methods use non-linear transform function. Thus, this paper proposes an automatic and parameter-free contrast enhancement algorithm for color images. This method includes following steps: First, RGB color space is transformed to HSV color space. Second, image content analysis is used to analyze the image illumination distribution. Third, the original image is enhanced by piecewise linear based enhancement method. Finally, the enhancement image is transformed back to RGB color space. This novel enhancement is automatic and parameter-free. Our experiments included various color images with low and high contrast. Experiment results show that the performance of the proposed method is better than histogram equalization (HE) and its six variations in non-over enhancement and natural clearly revealed. Moreover, the proposed algorithm can be run on an embedded environment (such as mobile device, digital camera, or other consumer products) and processed in real-time system due to its simplicity and efficiently.
