Detection and Tracking of Facial Features in Video Sequences
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work presents a real time system for detection and tracking of facial features in video sequences. Such system may be used in visual communication applications, such as teleconferencing, virtual reality, intelligent interfaces, humanmachine interaction, surveillance, etc. We have used a statistical skin-color model to segment face-candidate regions in the image. The presence or absence of a face in each region is verified by means of an eye detector, based on an efficient template matching scheme . Once a face is detected, the pupils, nostrils and lip corners are located and these facial features are tracked in the image sequence, performing real time processing.

Neural Network Performance Analysis for Real Time Hand Gesture Tracking Based on Hu Moment and Hybrid Features
This paper presents a comparison study between the multilayer perceptron (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF) neural networks with supervised learning and back propagation algorithm to track hand gestures. Both networks have two output classes which are hand and face. Skin is detected by a regional based algorithm in the image, and then networks are applied on video sequences frame by frame in...
متن کاملAnalysis and Synthesis of Facial Expressions by Feature-Points Tracking and Deformable Model
Face expression recognition is useful for designing new interactive devices offering the possibility of new ways for human to interact with computer systems. In this paper we develop a facial expressions analysis and synthesis system. The analysis part of the system is based on the facial features extracted from facial feature points (FFP) in frontal image sequences. Selected facial feature poi...
متن کاملMultiple Face Tracking with Appearance Modes and Reasoning
Multiple face tracking plays a key role in applications related to security-surveillance, human-computer interactions, video indexing etc. Existing literature in face tracking has mainly focused on facial features from a detection/recognition viewpoint. On the other hand, we believe that reasoning with detected/tracked face regions has a strong role in multiple face tracking. We propose a reaso...
متن کاملAutomatic landmark point detection and tracking for human facial expressions
Facial landmarks are a set of salient points, usually located on the corners, tips or mid points of the facial components. Reliable facial landmarks and their associated detection and tracking algorithms can be widely used for representing the important visual features for face registration and expression recognition. In this paper we propose an efficient and robust method for facial landmark d...
