Abstract

In this paper we present a new robust approach for eye localization adopted into lip reading in mobile environments, where the input image is assumed to contain a single face. Firstly, we segment eye candidates regions using intensity information in YCbCr color space. Then coupled regions of eye candidates including assumed eye brows are extracted with the restrictions of morphology and geometry characteristics of eyes in frontal face. GMM is applied next to validate exact eye couple.
