Abstract
A method for correcting red-eye is described. Through facial features, at least one facial region is obtained in an image, a nose position in each facial region is obtained by using a nose feature, and at least one eye position is obtained based on a relative position relation between the nose and the eyes. After a color gamut of the image is converted, a red region is obtained from the eye position, and a plurality of edges is formed by using a luminance of the color gamut on the image with the converted color gamut according to the eye feature, so as to exclude the red region out of the plurality of edges, thereby improving accuracy of the red region on the eye position. Then, the red region is covered by an iris color, so as to correct the red-eye.
