This paper presents a comprehensive survey of facial feature point detection with the
assistance of abundant manually labeled images. Facial feature point detection favors many …

Active appearance model (AAM) is one of the most popular model‐based approaches that
have been extensively used to extract features by highly accurate modeling of human faces …

In this work, we exploit the regression trees-based ranking model, which has been
successfully applied in the domain of web-search ranking, to build appearance models for …

No one can deny the fact that face recognition systems, as one of the most adaptable
systems in biometric facial recognition, has interestingly been one of the fields that draw …

This book proposes to solve the low-resolution (LR) facial analysis problem with 3D face
super-resolution (FSR). A complete processing chain is presented towards effective 3D FSR …

Facial image analysis has found its application in various fields including security,
entertainment, multimedia indexing, human-computer interaction, etc. Essentially, as an …

We extend the PCT (Pseudo Census Transform)-based appearance model [3] to ranking-
based appearance model for face alignment. The PCT-based weak ranking function is …

considered to be the most user-friendly systems in the biometric world. Also, they are one of …

Measuring the intrinsic deformability of arbitrary small‐scale subdivision of a shape is an
interesting meanwhile valuable research topic. Such measurement can be directly utilised …
