3D head pose and gaze tracking and their application to diverse multimodal tasks
Kenneth Alberto Funes Mora · 2013
In this PhD thesis the problem of 3D head pose and gaze tracking from minimal user cooperation is addressed. By exploiting characteristics of RGB-D sensors, contributions have been made related to consequent problems of the lack of cooperation: in particular, head pose and inter-person appearance variability; in addition to low resolution handling. The resulting system enabled diverse multimodal applications. In particular, recent work combined multiple RGB-D sensors to detect gazing events in dyadic interactions.
