A Fast and Robust Facial Points Localization and Pose Estimation System
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a fast facial feature point detection and pose estimation system. This system can detect facial points and estimate 3D pose angles in various conditions including facial expression changes and partial occlusion, etc. Only one facial image is needed as input and we don’t need special devices such as a blinking LED or a dual/stereo camera, etc. Moreover, no calibration process is needed. It shows 90% of estimation accuracy (when the error margin is 15 degrees), and the processing time is about 10ms/frame (Pentium4 3.2GHz). Acceptable range of facial pose is within ±60 degrees in yaw (left-right) and within ±30 degrees in pitch (up-down).

Towards Robust and Automated Head Pose Estimation: Elastic Energy Model
Pose estimation is an important part in human face recognition because head rotations will significantly affect the recognition accuracy. However, automated and accurate pose determination still remains an unsolved problem in the research community. In this paper, we propose a novel Elastic Energy Model to tackle this problem, which employs statistical energy contributions of a set of feature p...

Face pose estimation plays an important role in human computer interaction, automatic human behavior analysis, gaze estimation, virtual reality, pose independent face recognition etc. Accuracy and speed are the most desirable features of a face pose estimation system. In this paper, a face pose estimation scheme based on the centers of the eyes and mouth is proposed. The proposed method is simp...
متن کاملCamera Pose Estimation in Unknown Environments using a Sequence of Wide-Baseline Monocular Images
In this paper, a feature-based technique for the camera pose estimation in a sequence of wide-baseline images has been proposed. Camera pose estimation is an important issue in many computer vision and robotics applications, such as, augmented reality and visual SLAM. The proposed method can track captured images taken by hand-held camera in room-sized workspaces with maximum scene depth of 3-4...
متن کاملA Fast and Robust Automatic Face Alignment System
We present an automatic face alignment system, whose objective is to localize the facial feature points in images. Our system is robust against bad initialization, facial expression and pose variation. It can converge from inaccurate initialization by the face detector or feature-pt detector. And as our system is tolerant of expression and pose variation, the alignment results can be used to es...
متن کاملA Novel Facial Feature Localization Method Using Probabilistic-like Output
Object detection technique generally could not localize facial features precisely because there is a tradeoff between detection robustness and facial feature support [2]. To address this problem, we propose a method to calculate probabilistic-like output for each pixel of image. This output describes the similarity of a patch of image to the training samples. The probabilistic-like output is af...
