Summary
The problem of facial characteristic features extraction is discussed. Several methods of features extraction for color en–face photographs are discussed. The methods are based mainly on the colors features related to the specific regions of the human face. The usefulness of presented methods was tested on a database of en–face photographs consisting of 100 photographs.
