Human eye state detection method based on cascade classification and hough circle transform

The utility model relates to a detection method of eye state based on cascade sort and Hough circle transform, belonging to the field of pattern recognition, which is characterized in the following steps: to acquire a face image; to carry out skin color segmentation in the YCbCr color space to acquire the position information of the skin color area using an ellipse skin model; to detect the rectangular eye area with the method of eye detecting window traversal with a cascade eye classifier; to merge a rectangle by rectangular merge method to get a merged eye rectangular linked list; to operate edge detection and binarization in turn on every rectangular eye area in the merged eye rectangular linked list with a Sobel operator to get an binary image; to detect the eye state of every binary image in turn with horizontal projection method; to further detect the eye state by Hough circle transform detection method if whether the present state is eye closure is not certain. The utility model increases the speed of eye detection, tracks and analyzes the eye state with the skin color segmentation, which is suitable for attention detection and fatigue detection.
