  • Abstract
    This paper realizes an investigation of the active appearance model (AAM) techniques, with particular emphasis on problems related to the implementation of AAM in realtime face tracking applications for embedded systems. The paper includes (a) new training and model construction approaches for AAMs with increased robustness to head pose variations and changes in the illumination conditions, and (b) a corresponding AAM-based face tracking scheme.
