Abstract
A device to apply detection schemes to texture information of a face detected within an image to generate mouth corner candidates and identify best matching mouth corners by applying a geometric model to the moth corner candidates.
Claims20
A method for detecting mouth corners within an image comprising:
- accessing texture information of a face within an image;
- identifying mouth corner candidates in response to applying detection schemes to the texture information of the face;
- and
- applying a geometric model to the mouth corner candidates to identify best matching mouth corners and storing the best matching mouth corners in a storage component of a device.
1 more element
A device comprising:
- a storage component to include an image;
- and
- a controller to generate a list mouth corner candidates in response to applying detection schemes to texture information of a face detected within the image;
- wherein the controller additionally identifies best matching mouth corners by applying a geometric model to the list of mouth corner candidates and stores the best matching mouth corners to the storage component.
1 more element
A computer readable medium comprising instructions that if executed cause a controller to:
- access texture information of a face within an image;
- generate mouth corner candidates by applying detection schemes to the texture information of the face;
- and
- apply a geometric model to the mouth corner candidates to identify best matching mouth corners of the face and store the best matching mouth corners in a storage component of a device.
