Facial Feature Tracking for Emotional Dynamic Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents a feature-based framework to automatically track 18 facial landmarks for emotion recognition and emotional dynamic analysis. With a new way of using multi-kernel learning, we combine two methods: the first matches facial feature points between consecutive images and the second uses an offline learning of the facial landmark appearance. Matching points results in a jitter-free tracking and the offline learning prevents the tracking framework from drifting. We train the tracking system on the Cohn-Kanade database and analyze the dynamic of emotions and Action Units on the MMI database sequences. We perform accurate detection of facial expressions temporal segment and report experimental results.

We studied the tracking theory based on Candide3 facial model and according to the research we further developed the tracking process. Based on the research of facial tracking, we put forward a dynamic feature extraction method based on six parameters of facial model. We introduced the active appearance model algorithm to locate and track feature points of facial expression, then studied the tr...

We present a Dynamic Data Driven Application System (DDDAS) to track 2D shapes across large pose variations by learning non-linear shape manifold as overlapping, piecewise linear subspaces. The learned subspaces adaptively adjust to the subject by tracking the shapes independently using Kanade Lucas Tomasi(KLT) point tracker. The novelty of our approach is that the tracking of feature points is...
