Illustrate the present invention below with reference to a specific example.
The method of the present invention includes a training process, according to one group of training data study human face posture angle and its texture Regression function between feature.Here we are indicated using following regression function between attitude angle and the n-th dimensional feature Regression relation:
φX(α)、φY(β) and φZ(γ) respectively indicates the p rank about pitch angle, the q rank about deflection angle and wherein,
About the r rank multinomial at inclination angle,For the posture regression parameter of the n-th dimensional feature.It needs through training data The parameter of habit includes the coefficient in posture regression parameter and three multinomials.These parameters can be obtained by gradient descent method It arrives.
Test phase, first with the attitude angle of the secondary new input facial image of above-mentioned regression model estimation one.Specifically, The human face region inputted on facial image is detected and split first, specified size is normalized to, then extracts its line Feature is managed, note this feature is F ∈ RN, Fn indicates its n-th dimensional feature component.Later, using trained regression model, root is calculated A possibility that belonging to different attitude angles according to every one-dimensional characteristic component input facial image.Calculation formula is as follows:
Finally, selecting posture initial estimation result of the attitude angle with maximum possible as the input facial image.
Then the feature point detector of corresponding posture is selected according to obtained attitude angle, detection inputs on facial image Characteristic point (such as pupil center, nose and the corners of the mouth) position.When it is implemented, the data training by corresponding attitude angle can be taken Obtained moving shape model (ASM) or the facial feature points detection device returned based on cascade.
The characteristic point that last basis obtains further accurately estimates the people in input picture using the method based on characteristic point Face attitude angle.When it is implemented, can be using the characteristic point on fitting one average three-dimensional face model to input X-Y scheme The method of picture.Specifically, being thrown by adjusting the attitude angle of three-dimensional face model to optimize the characteristic point on three-dimensional face model Registration after on shadow to two dimensional image and on input two-dimension human face image between characteristic point, which, which can be used, is based on Particle group optimizing or the method declined based on gradient.When optimization starts, three-dimensional face model is standard front face posture.Optimize Cheng Shi, three-dimensional face model attitude angle adjusted are to input the attitude angle of facial image.
Advantages of the present invention are as follows: combine the Attitude estimation method based on appearance features and based on characteristic point.Based on apparent The Attitude estimation mode of feature is suitble to carry out rough sort to posture, although and the method based on characteristic point finer can be estimated Attitude angle, but need to detect human face characteristic point first.However, accurately detecting any attitude with a unified model Under human face characteristic point, it is difficult to realize at present.Therefore the present invention, make full use of based on the attitude prediction of appearance features as a result, Selection is directed to the facial modeling model of particular pose angular range, is then estimated more with the method based on characteristic point again Accurate attitude angle.In this way, estimating attitude angle from thick to thin by cascade mode, any attitude feature has both been overcome Influence of the point location difficulty to Attitude estimation, and effectively increase the precision of Attitude estimation.
A specific embodiment of the invention is described in detail above in conjunction with attached drawing, but the present invention is not restricted to Embodiment is stated, in the spirit and scope for not departing from claims hereof, those skilled in the art can make Various modifications or remodeling out.
