In this paper, an integrated method for real-time multi-view face detection and pose estimation is presented. A simple-to-complex and coarse-to-fine view-based detector architecture has been designed to detect multi- view faces and estimate their poses efficiently. Both the pose estimators and the view-based face/nonface detectors are trained by a cost-sensitive AdaBoost algorithm to improve the generalization ability. Experi- mental results show that the proposed multi-view face detector, which can be constructed easily, gives more robust face detection and pose estimation and has a faster real-time detection speed compared with other conventional methods.展开更多

This paper describes a face model for generation of novel view facial textures with various realistic expressions and poses. The model is achieved from corpora of a talking person using machine learning techniques. In face modeling, the facial texture variation is expressed by a multi-view facial texture space model, with the facial shape variation represented by a compact 3-D point distribution model （PDM）. The facial texture space and the shape space are connected by bridging 2-D mesh structures. Levenberg-Marquardt optimization is employed for fine model fitting. Animation trajectory is trained for smooth and continuous image sequences. The test results show that this approach can achieve a vivid talking face sequence in various views. Moreover, the animation complexity is significantly reduced by the vector representation.展开更多

文摘Existing multi-view deep subspace clustering methods aim to learn a unified representation from multi-view data,while the learned representation is difficult to maintain the underlying structure hidden in the origin samples,especially the high-order neighbor relationship between samples.To overcome the above challenges,this paper proposes a novel multi-order neighborhood fusion based multi-view deep subspace clustering model.We creatively integrate the multi-order proximity graph structures of different views into the self-expressive layer by a multi-order neighborhood fusion module.By this design,the multi-order Laplacian matrix supervises the learning of the view-consistent self-representation affinity matrix;then,we can obtain an optimal global affinity matrix where each connected node belongs to one cluster.In addition,the discriminative constraint between views is designed to further improve the clustering performance.A range of experiments on six public datasets demonstrates that the method performs better than other advanced multi-view clustering methods.The code is available at https://github.com/songzuolong/MNF-MDSC(accessed on 25 December 2024).
文摘The increasing prevalence of multi-view data has made multi-view clustering a crucial technique for discovering latent structures from heterogeneous representations.However,traditional fuzzy clustering algorithms show limitations with the inherent uncertainty and imprecision of such data,as they rely on a single-dimensional membership value.To overcome these limitations,we propose an auto-weighted multi-view neutrosophic fuzzy clustering(AW-MVNFC)algorithm.Our method leverages the neutrosophic framework,an extension of fuzzy sets,to explicitly model imprecision and ambiguity through three membership degrees.The core novelty of AWMVNFC lies in a hierarchical weighting strategy that adaptively learns the contributions of both individual data views and the importance of each feature within a view.Through a unified objective function,AW-MVNFC jointly optimizes the neutrosophic membership assignments,cluster centers,and the distributions of view and feature weights.Comprehensive experiments conducted on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that our algorithm achieves more accurate and stable clustering than existing methods,demonstrating its effectiveness in handling the complexities of multi-view data.
