Methods and apparatus for automated facial feature localization

摘要

Various embodiments of methods and apparatus for facial retouching are disclosed. In one embodiment, a face in an input image is detected. One or more transformation parameters for the detected face are estimated based on a profile model. The profile model is applied to obtain a set of feature points for each facial component of the detected face. Global and component-based shape models are applied to generate feature point locations of each facial component of the detected face.
