An algorithm based on ASM to label the facial feature nodes automatically
Zhenquan Zhuang · Journal of Circuits and Systems · 2006
An algorithm is proposed in this paper to solve the facial feature points landmark by machine instead of by hand. It includes two steps. Firstly, it estimates the initial position of these feature points with the help of Active Shape Models. Secondly, it adjusts these initial points by calculating the similarity of the Gabor vector between the initial points and the referenced points. Finally, we can label the feature points accurately. Experiments show that our algorithm can locate facial feature points efficiently and robustly.
