Statistical appearance models for automatic pose invariant face recognition
Recent pose invariant methods try to model the subject specific appearance change across pose. For this, however, almost all of the existing methods require a perfect alignment b...

A high-resolution 3D dynamic facial expression database
Face information processing relies on the quality of data resource. From the data modality point of view, a face database can be 2D or 3D, and static or dynamic. From the task poi...

Real-time facial expression recognition with illumination-corrected image sequences
We present a real-time user-independent computer vision system that processes a sequence of images of a front-facing human face and recognises a set of facial expressions at 30 fp...

Regularized active shape model for shape alignment
Active shape model (ASM) statistically represents a shape by a set of well-defined landmark points and models object variations using principal component analysis (PCA). However, ...

Reducing the other-race effect through caricatures
We recognize faces from our own race better than those from another race. Although the relative contribution of different mechanisms (e.g. contact vs. attention) remains elusive, ...

Multi-attribute robust facial feature localization
In this paper, we focus on the reliable detection of facial fiducial points, such as eye, eyebrow and mouth corners. The proposed algorithm aims to improve automatic landmarking ...

Using an adaptive VAR Model for motion prediction in 3D hand tracking
A robust VAR-based (vector autoregressive) model is introduced for motion prediction in 3D hand tracking. This dynamic VAR motion model is learned in an online manner. The kinemat...
