  Human Skin detection deals with the recognition of skin-colored pixels and
regions in a given image. Skin color is often used in human skin detection
because it is invariant to orientation and size and is fast to process. A new
human skin detection algorithm is proposed in this paper. The three main
parameters for recognizing a skin pixel are RGB (Red, Green, Blue), HSV (Hue,
Saturation, Value) and YCbCr (Luminance, Chrominance) color models. The
objective of proposed algorithm is to improve the recognition of skin pixels in
given images. The algorithm not only considers individual ranges of the three
color parameters but also takes into ac- count combinational ranges which
provide greater accuracy in recognizing the skin area in a given image.
