چکیده

Head pose estimation in low resolution is a challenge problem. Traditional pose estimation algorithms, which assume faces have been well aligned before pose estimation, would face much difficulty in this situation, since face alignment itself does not work well in this low resolution scenario. In this paper, we propose to estimate head pose using viewbased multi-view face detectors directly. Naive Bayesian classifier is then applied to fuse the information of head pose from multiple camera views. To model the temporal changing of head pose, Hidden Markov Model is used to obtain the optimal sequence of head pose with greatest likelihood.

Estimating the Lecturer's Head Pose in Seminar Scenarios - A Multi-view Approach

In this paper, we present a system to track the horizontal head orientation of a lecturer in a smart seminar room, which is equipped with several cameras. We automatically detect and track the face of the lecturer and use neural networks to classify his or her face orientation in each camera view. By combining the single estimates of the speaker’s head orientation from multiple cameras into one...

Neural Network-Based Head Pose Estimation and Multi-view Fusion

In this paper, we present two systems that were used for head pose estimation during the CLEAR06 Evaluation. We participated in two tasks: (1) estimating both pan and tilt orientation on synthetic, high resolution head captures, (2) estimating horizontal head orientation only on real seminar recordings that were captured with multiple cameras from different viewing angles. In both systems, we u...

Absolute Head Pose Estimation From Overhead Wide-Angle Cameras

Most surveillance cameras have a wide-angle field of view and are situated unobtrusively in overhead positions. For this type of application, head pose estimation is very challenging because of the limitations of the quality and resolution of the incoming data. In addition, as a person moves, their pose relative to the camera changes, but the desired pose is the absolute pose with respect to th...
