Abstract

This Paper extracts the edge of main components of face with Gator wavelets transformation in facial expression images. FCM(Fuzzy C-Means) clustering algorithm then extracts the representative feature points of low dimensionality from the edge extracted in neutral face. The feature-points of the neutral face is used as a template to extract the feature-points of facial expression images. To match point to Point feature points on an expression face against each feature point on a neutral face, it consists of two steps using a dynamic linking model, which are called the coarse mapping and the fine mapping. This paper presents an automatic extraction of feature-points by dynamic linking model based on Gabor wavelets and fuzzy C-means(FCM) algorithm. The result of this study was applied to extract features automatically in facial expression recognition based on dimension[1].

본 논문은 Gabor 웨이브렛 변환을 이용하여 무표정을 포함한 표정영상에서 얼굴의 주요 요소들의 경계선을 추출한 후, FCM 군집화 알고리즘을 적용하여 무표정 영상에서 저차원의 대표적인 특징점을 추출한다. 무표정 영상의 특징점들은 표정영상의 특징점들을 추출하기 위한 템플릿으로 사용되어지며, 표정영상의 특징점 추출은 무표정 영상의 특징점과 동적 연결모형을 이용하여 개략적인 정합과 정밀한 정합 과정의 두단계로 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 Gabor 웨이브렛과 FCM 군집화 알고리즘을 기반으로 동적 연결모형을 이용하여 표정영상에서 특징점들을 자동으로 추출할 수 있음을 제시한다. 본 연구결과는 자동 특징추출을 이용한 차원모형기반 얼굴 표정인식[1]에서 얼굴표정의 특징점을 자동으로 추출하는 데 적용되었다.
