Abstract
This paper proposes an eye detection method based on neural networks, skin color and eye template. First a multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP) using the retro propagation function with Gabor filter feature is used to detect faces in images. Next a method based on skin color and eyes template used to locate the eyes in detected faces. The results obtained are satisfactory in terms of quality and speed of detection.
