Skin color is an important feature of faces. Various applications benefit from robust skin color detection. Depending on camera settings, illumination, shadows, people's tans...
In this paper we propose a generic framework for event detection in broadcast video of multiple different field-sports. Features indicating significant events are selected, and ro...
