Description & Coverage
Description:

Since research on face recognition began in the 1960's, the field has rapidly widened to automated face analysis including face detection, facial gesture recognition, and facial expression recognition.

Automated Face Analysis: Emerging Technologies and Research provides theoretical background to understand the overall configuration and challenging problem of automated face analysis systems, featuring a comprehensive review of recent research for the practical implementation of the analysis system. A must-read for practitioners and students in the field, this book provides understanding by systematically dividing the subject into several subproblems such as detection, modeling, and tracking of the face.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • AdaBoost learning
  • Automated face analysis
  • Eye detection
  • Face certainty map
  • Face disguise discrimination
  • MCT-based feature correlation
  • Modified census transform
  • Robust eye detection
  • Role of face in human communication
Reviews & Statements

This book combines all related subjects such as face and eye detection, face modeling, face tracking, face recognition, facial expression recognition, and facial gesture recognition into one book, as well as, provides the introductory theoretical backgrounds for each subject.
