Intensity-Depth Face Alignment Using Cascade Shape Regression
نویسندگان
چکیده
With quick development of Kinect, depth image has become an important channel for assisting the color/infrared image in diverse computer vision tasks. Kinect can provide depth image as well as color and infrared images, which are suitable for multi-model vision tasks. This paper presents a framework for intensity-depth face alignment based on cascade shape regression. Information from intensity and depth images is combined during feature selection in cascade shape regression. Experimental results show that this combination improves face alignment accuracy notably.

Cascade of forests for face alignment
In this paper we propose a regression forests-based cascaded method for face alignment. We build on the Cascaded Pose Regression (CPR) framework and propose to use Regression Forest as a primitive regressor. The regression forests are easier to train and naturally handle the over-fitting problem via averaging the outputs of the trees at each stage. We address the fact that the CPR approaches ar...
متن کاملEfficient Branching Cascaded Regression for Face Alignment under Significant Head Rotation
Despite much interest in face alignment in recent years, the large majority of work has focused on near-frontal faces. Algorithms typically break down on profile faces, or are too slow for real-time applications. In this work we propose an efficient approach to face alignment that can handle 180 degrees of head rotation in a unified way (e.g., without resorting to view-based models) using 2D tr...
متن کامل3D Face Recognition Based on Depth and Intensity Gabor Features using Symbolic PCA and AdaBoost
Traditional 2D face recognition based on optical (intensity or color) images faces many challenges, such as illumination, expression, and pose variation. In fact, the human face generates not only 2D texture information but also 3D shape information. In this paper, the objective is to investigate what contributions depth and intensity information make to the solution of face recognition problem...

Pioneer 2D face recognition based on intensity or color images encounters many challenges, like variation in illumination, expression, and pose variation. In fact, the human face generates not only 2D texture information but also 3D shape information. In this paper, the main objective is to analyze what contributions depth and intensity with texture information make to the solution of face reco...
متن کاملRobust Face Alignment Using a Mixture of Invariant Experts
Face alignment, which is the task of finding the locations of a set of facial landmark points in an image of a face, is useful in widespread application areas. Face alignment is particularly challenging when there are large variations in pose (in-plane and out-of-plane rotations) and facial expression. To address this issue, we propose a cascade in which each stage consists of a mixture of regr...
