On Importance of Nose for Face Tracking
نویسنده
چکیده
Human nose, while being in many cases the only facial feature clearly visible during the head motion, seems to be very undervalued in face tracking technology. This paper shows theoretically and by experiments conducted with ordinary USB cameras that, by properly defining nose – as an extremum of the 3D curvature of the nose surface, nose becomes the most robust feature which can be seen for almost any position of the head and which can be tracked very precisely even with low resolution cameras.

In the context of Human-Robot interaction estimating gaze orientation brings useful information about human focus of attention. This is a contextual information : when you point something you usually look at it. Estimating gaze orientation requires head pose estimation. There are several techniques to estimate head pose from images, they are mainly based on training [3, 4] or on local face feat...

متن کامل“Look, Ma – No Hands!” Hands-Free Cursor Control with Real-Time 3D Face Tracking
This paper presents a real-time, non-invasive, vision system which performs hands-free cursor control by having users point their nose where they wish to place the cursor on a monitor screen. The vision system robustly tracks 3D face position and orientation in real time using a framework called Incremental Focus of Attention (IFA). IFA integrates tracking based on multiple cues (including colo...
متن کاملNeural 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...
