    摘要: Improvements are provided to effectively assess a user's face and head pose such that a computer or like device can track the user's attention towards a display device(s). Then the region of the display or graphical user interface that the user is turned towards can be automatically selected without requiring the user to provide further inputs. A frontal face detector is applied to detect the user's frontal face and then key facial points such as left/right eye center, left/right mouth corner, nose tip, etc., are detected by component detectors. The system then tracks the user's head by an image tracker and determines yaw, tilt and roll angle and other pose information of the user's head through a coarse to fine process according to key facial points and/or confidence outputs by pose estimator.

    摘要: A method and system for generating 3D images of faces from 2D images, for generating 2D images of the faces at different image conditions from the 3D images, and for recognizing a 2D image of a target face based on the generated 2D images is provided. The recognition system provides a 3D model of a face that includes a 3D image of a standard face under a standard image condition and parameters indicating variations of an individual face from the standard face. To generate the 3D image of a face, the recognition system inputs a 2D image of the face under a standard image condition. The recognition system then calculates parameters that map the points of the 2D image to the corresponding points of a 2D image of the standard face. The recognition system uses these parameters with the 3D model to generate 3D images of the face at different image conditions.

    摘要: Systems, engines, user interfaces, and methods allow a user to select a group of images, such as digital photographs, and assign to the group of images the name of a person who is represented in each of the images. The name is automatically propagated to the face of the person, each time the person's face occurs in an image. In one implementation, names and associations are shared between a browsing mode for viewing multiple images at once and a viewer mode, for viewing one image at a time. The browsing mode can provide a menu of candidate names for annotating a face in a single image of the viewer mode. Likewise, the viewer mode can provide annotated face information to the browser mode for facilitating name propagation. Identification of a person's face in multiple images can be accomplished not only by finding similarities in facial features but also by finding similarities in contextual features near the face in different images.
