New Lips Detection and Tracking System
نویسنده
چکیده
An automatic lips detection and tracking system based on watershed segmentation and H approach is presented. For some of the lips detection systems, skin/non-skin detection is a prerequisite step to localise the face region and the lips region is then detected from the face region. In this paper, a direct lips detection technique using watershed segmentation without needing preliminary face localisation is proposed. The watershed algorithm segments the input image into regions. Consequently, the cubic spline interpolant lips colour modelling and symmetry detection are used to detect the lips region from the segmented regions. The position of the segmented lips is passed to the H tracking system to predict the location of the lips in the succeeding video frame. The simulation results have revealed a good performance of the proposed method.

Real-time lip-tracking for lipreading
This paper presents a new approach to lip tracking for lipreading. Instead of only tracking features on lips, we propose to track lips along with other facial features such as pupils and nostril. In the new approach, the face is rst located in an image using a stochastic skin-color model, the eyes, lip-corners and nostrils are then located and tracked inside the facial region. The new approach ...
متن کاملDoppler and bearing tracking using fuzzy adaptive unscented Kalman filter
The topic of Doppler and Bearing Tracking (DBT) problem is to achieve a target trajectory using the Doppler and Bearing measurements. The difficulty of DBT problem comes from the nonlinearity terms exposed in the measurement equations. Several techniques were studied to deal with this topic, such as the unscented Kalman filter. Nevertheless, the performance of the filter depends directly on the...

Current era is to make the interaction between humans and their artificial partners (Computers) and make communication easier and more reliable. One of the actual tasks is the use of vocal interaction. Speech recognition may be improved by visual information of human face. In literature, the lip shape and its movement are referred to as lip reading. Lip reading computing plays a vital role in a...
متن کاملA System for Automatic Lip Reading
In this paper, we present our approach of face and lip detection, lip modeling, and tracking. A new lip model based on Bézier Curves is used to capture the dynamics of the lips efficiently. The model is defined only through few points which are modeled using the Active Shape Model (ASM). Accurate detection of lip details is implemented using multiple independent feature templates. The method de...
