Pose Estimation Based on Gaussian Error Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a new method is presented to estimate the 3D pose of facial image based on statistical Gaussian error models. The basic idea is that the pose angle can be computed by the orthogonal projection computation if the specific 3D shape vector of the given person is known. In our algorithm, Gaussian probability density function is used to model the distributions of the 3D shape vector as well as the errors between the orthogonal projection computation and the weak perspective projection. By using the prior knowledge of the errors distribution, the most likely 3D shape vector can be referred by the labeled 2D landmarks in the given facial image according to the maximum posterior probability theory. Refining the error term, thus the pose parameters can be estimated by the transformed orthogonal projection formula. Experimental results on real images are presented to give the objective evaluation.

متن کاملHead Pose Estimation Using Multi-scale Gaussian Derivatives
In this paper we approach the problem of head pose estimation by combining Multi-scale Gaussian Derivatives with Support Vector Machines. We evaluate the approach on the Pointing04 and CMU-PIE data sets and to estimate the pan and tilt of the head from facial images. We achieved a mean absolute error of 6.9 degrees for pan and 8.0 degrees for tilt on the Pointing04 data set.

متن کاملRobust 3D-3D pose estimation
The paper focuses on the robust 30-30 single and multiple pose estimation. The robust 30-30 single pose estimation was formulated aa a general regression in terms of a contaminated Gaussian error noise model (Haralick et al., 1989). The robust 30 -30 multiple pose estimation appears much more dificult. In the paper, the problm is formulated as a series of general regressions involving a success...
