Collection and Analysis of a Representative Dataset of Human Skin Colors
Abstract
The objective of this research was the collection and analysis of a representative human skin color dataset. Images of cabinet members (n=3566) from 32 countries were collected and the RGB and LAB skin color values were extracted using Photoshop. Human skin color was found to fall within a clearly defined range in both the RGB and LAB spaces. This space was found to be more compact in the LAB space with values occupying only a small section of the A and B space while the lightness component was more widely dispersed.
Keywords: LAB skin colors, RGB skin colors, human skin
