Method for automatic detection of red-eye defecs in photographic images

摘要

The red eye detection method involves determining a value as a criterium for the presence of the defect, and which provides information on the presence of flash light when recording the image data. Preferably a flash marker in the film data serves as an indicator that a flash was using when recording the image. Alternatively, identification of artificial light, poor contrast, image analysis, heavy shadows etc. can indicate that a flash was used.
