The data set of Time Magazine covers, downloaded here
-
Using OpenCV to detect and extract the faces appearing in the magazine covers
time_covers.py
- Using the Python Image Library to implement the Peer, at al. (2003) skin tone classifier to find the dominant skin tone in each face
skin_tone.py
- Designing a data visualization and exploration tool using d3.js
