چکیده

Stable and clear visible facial features are crucial for the tasks in human face perception, such as face detection and tracking. Among other features, the center point between the eyes, or the “Between-the-Eyes” (BTE) has been found to be one of the good choices. In this paper, we propose a simple and fast way of extracting this facial feature from a facial image. By using down-sampling strategy, a rotationally invariant filter is used for detecting the BTE feature. Primary experiments show the feasibility of this scheme and its usage in face tracking.

Local gradient pattern - A novel feature representation for facial expression recognition

Many researchers adopt Local Binary Pattern for pattern analysis. However, the long histogram created by Local Binary Pattern is not suitable for large-scale facial database. This paper presents a simple facial pattern descriptor for facial expression recognition. Local pattern is computed based on local gradient flow from one side to another side through the center pixel in a 3x3 pixels region...

Facial Feature Point Extraction by Partial Least Square Regression

Extracting facial feature points such as eyes, mouth and nose plays an important role in many applications. Most of the proposed methods are base on the geometrical features of images. In this paper, a novel method based on Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) model is introduced to extract the relationship between the feature point coordinates and gray value distribution in the image. The pr...
