Comparing Variations on the Active Appearance Model Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Active Appearance Model (AAM) algorithm has proved to be a successful method for matching statistical models of appearance to new images. Since the original algorithm was described there have been a variety of suggested modifications to the basic algorithm, each typically claiming to be in some way superior. We review these algorithms and report the results of experiments comparing their performance. We also investigate the effects of different methods of estimating the update matrix used in the algorithm. We find that careful choice of the latter has at least as much effect as the choice of updating technique.

A Comparative Evaluation of Active Appearance Model Algorithms
An Active Appearance Model (AAM) allows complex models of shape and appearance to be matched to new images rapidly. An AAM contains a statistical model of the shape and grey-level appearance of an object of interest The associated search algorithm exploits the locally linear relationship between model parameter displacements and the residual errors between model instance and image. This relatio...

متن کاملComparing Active Shape Models with Active Appearance Models
Statistical models of the shape and appearance of image structures can be matched to new images using both the Active Shape Model [7] algorithm and the Active Appearance Model algorithm [2]. The former searches along profiles about the current model point positions to update the current estimate of the shape of the object. The latter samples the image data under the current instance and uses th...

In this paper, we propose an efficient hybrid Particle Filter (PF) algorithm for video tracking by employing a genetic algorithm to solve the sample impoverishment problem. In the presented method, the object to be tracked is selected by a rectangular window inside which a few numbers of particles are scattered. The particles’ weights are calculated based on the similarity between feature vecto...
