Head Pose Determination Using Synthetic Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a new approach to determine the head pose which is a very important issue in several new applications. Our method consists of building a synthetic image database for a dense set of pose parameter values. This can be done with only one real image of the face using the Candide-3 model. To determine the pose, we compare each synthesized face image to the current image using an Hausdorff-like distance applied to gradient orientation features. Experimental results show the efficiency of our approach on real images. The improvement is also proved through a comparison with other technique presented in literature.

On Eye Gaze Determination via Iris Contour
We present a new approach for measuring the eye gaze using images that contains only one eye of a person. The model of the eye is investigated and gaze can be estimated by tracking the eyeball rotations. Iris contour is modeled as one planar circle and we estimate the ellipses of their projections onto a retinal plane. The unique solution of the orientations was obtained based on a geometric co...

In video surveillance, the viewing angle of face with respect to camera, called angular occlusion (also referred to as head pose) will limit system’s ability in face recognition. In this paper, a method for angular occlusion elimination in face images is proposed, which is based on image morphing. The proposed method models a frontal face from a batch of images with different head poses b...
متن کاملDataset Augmentation for Pose and Lighting Invariant Face Recognition
The performance of modern face recognition systems is a function of the dataset on which they are trained. Most datasets are largely biased toward “near-frontal” views with benign lighting conditions, negatively effecting recognition performance on images that do not meet these criteria. The proposed approach demonstrates how a baseline training set can be augmented to increase pose and lightin...

Humans can perceive a variety of visual properties of objects besides their category. In this paper, we explorewhether convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can also learn object-related variables. The models are trained for object position, size and pose, respectively, from synthetic images and tested on unseen held-out objects. First, we show that some object properties come "for free" from le...
متن کاملFeature Mapping for Learning Fast and Accurate 3D Pose Inference from Synthetic Images
We propose a simple and efficient method for exploiting synthetic images when training a Deep Network to predict a 3D pose from an image. The ability of using synthetic images for training a Deep Network is extremely valuable as it is easy to create a virtually infinite training set made of such images, while capturing and annotating real images can be very cumbersome. However, synthetic images...
