For semantic coding of videophone sequences at very low bit rates, the adaptation of a face model to automatically estimated facial features is necessary. In this contribution, an algorithm for the automatic estimation of the chin and cheek contours of a person is presented. The chin and cheeks are represented by a deformable template consisting of parabolas. Costfunctions are established and m...

An algorithm for the estimation of chin and cheek contours in video sequences is proposed. This algorithm exploits a priori knowledge about shape and position of chin and cheek contours in images. Exploiting knowledge about the shape, a parametric 2D model representing chin and cheek contours is introduced. Exploiting knowledge about the position, a MAP estimator is developed taking into accoun...

The labiomental groove is the deepest point of contour change at the junction of the lower lip and chin. It defines the sublabiale point. The labiomental groove is located at about one third the distance from stomion to gnathion. It represents the level of vestibule, but, more pertinently, it is the superior attachments of the mentalis muscle. The chin composes about two thirds of this part of ...
