In the recent years, automatically detecting eye with different image conditions is attended. This paper proposes a method which can automatically detect eye in extensive range of images with different conditions. In the proposed method, first an image is enhanced by morphological operations then region of face is detected by hybrid projection function. To identify window of eye, vertical edge dominance map is used. The authors＇ method uses elliptical mask on eye image to detect center of pupil. The mask scans eye image to find minimum gray level because pupil is darkest part in eye image compared with 3 well-known methods. The accuracy of 99.53% on this This method has implemented on JAFFE face database and database confirms efficiency of the proposed method.展开更多

The proposed method divides an image into blocks and performs discrete cosine transform(DCT) in blocks independently in the logarithm domain. For each block-DCT coefficient except the direct current(DC) component, we take the illumination as main signal and take the reflectance as "noise". A data-driven and adaptive soft-thresholding denoising technique is employed in each block-DCT coefficient except the DC component. Illumination is estimated by applying the inverse DCT in the block-DCT coefficients, and the indirectly obtained reflectance can be used in further recognition task. Experimental results show that the proposed approach outperforms other existing methods.
