Abstract

In one aspect, the present disclosure describes a process for automatic artifact compensation in a digital representation of an image. The process includes detecting, by a processor, regions corresponding to facial images within the digital representation; locating, by the processor, red-eye regions within the detected regions; and automatically modifying, by the processor, the located red-eye regions to provide a modified image.
