Using the EKF for 3D Morphable Model Parameter Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Estimating the structure of the human face is a long studied and difficult task. In this paper we present a new method for estimating facial structure from only a minimal number of salient feature points. The presented method uses the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to regress 3D Morphable Model (3DMM) shape parameters and solve rigid body motion using a simplified camera model. A linear method for initializing the recursive filter is provided. The convergence properties of the method are then evaluated using synthetic data. The method is then demonstrated for both single image shape recovery and shape recovery during tracking.

3D Morphable Model Parameter Estimation
Estimating the structure of the human face is a long studied and difficult task. In this paper we present a new method for estimating facial structure from only a minimal number of salient feature points across a video sequence. The presented method uses both an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and a Kalman Filter (KF) to regress 3D Morphable Model (3DMM) shape parameters and solve 3D pose using a ...
متن کاملEstimation of LOS Rates for Target Tracking Problems using EKF and UKF Algorithms- a Comparative Study
One of the most important problem in target tracking is Line Of Sight (LOS) rate estimation for using from PN (proportional navigation) guidance law. This paper deals on estimation of position and LOS rates of target with respect to the pursuer from available noisy RF seeker and tracker measurements. Due to many important for exact estimation on tracking problems must target position and Line O...
متن کاملA Multiresolution 3D Morphable Face Model and Fitting Framework
3D Morphable Face Models are a powerful tool in computer vision. They consist of a PCA model of face shape and colour information and allow to reconstruct a 3D face from a single 2D image. 3D Morphable Face Models are used for 3D head pose estimation, face analysis, face recognition, and, more recently, facial landmark detection and tracking. However, they are not as widely used as 2D methods t...
متن کامل3D morphable models : data pre-processing, statistical analysis and fitting
This thesis presents research aimed at using a 3D linear statistical model (known as a 3D morphable model) of an object class (which could be faces, bodies, cars, etc) for robust shape recovery. Our aim is to use this recovered information for the purposes of potentially useful applications like recognition and synthesis. With a 3D morphable model as its central theme, this thesis includes: a f...
متن کاملAutomatic estimation of regularization parameter by active constraint balancing method for 3D inversion of gravity data
Gravity data inversion is one of the important steps in the interpretation of practical gravity data. The inversion result can be obtained by minimization of the Tikhonov objective function. The determination of an optimal regularization parameter is highly important in the gravity data inversion. In this work, an attempt was made to use the active constrain balancing (ACB) method to select the...
