Analysis and Evaluation of Facial Expression and Perceived Age for Designing Automotive Frontal Views

摘要

We propose a method for quantifying the design of automotive frontal view based on the research on the human visual impression to the facial expression. We have researched to evaluate the automotive frontal face by using the facial words and the perceived age. Then we verified experimentally how effectively the line drawing image could work and coche-PICASSO image could be used for the image stimulation. As a result of this paper, a part of the facial words could be strongly correlated to both the facial expressions and the perceived age in the line drawing image. Besides, it was also known that the perceived age in the coche-PICASSO image was always younger than those of the line drawing image.
