Tagging Face Using Feature Based Face Detection

Tagging face is the most prevalent topic in today's world. This paper personifies a text based approach called name tag which uses skin color segmentation for face detection. For extraction of skin region we have used RGB, HSV, Cb, Cr color models with different ranges of thresholding. Each skin region is converted into binary image. Then morphological operation and region properties are applied to detect faces in images. After detection of face a name tag appears on faces in which user can provide alternate name according to their convenience.
