State-of-the-art methods often use the gray-scale face image as input. In this paper, we propose to use an additional feature to the face image: the skin color. The new feature set is tested on a benchmark database, namely XM2VTS, using a simple discriminant artificial neural network. Results show that the skin color information improves the performance and that the proposed model achieves robust state-of-the-art results.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/2002/rr02-36.pdf}, postscript = {ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/reports/2002/rr02-36.ps.gz}, ipdinar={2002}, ipdmembership={learning, vision}, language={English}, }
