Abstract

The available face views in the training set are mostly limited. In this paper, we present a view interpolation method using nonlinear B-spline on face manifolds. Two models, the inner-outer ellipse model and the moment of inertia model, are developed to estimate the pose orientation. We use the limited view-pose face images to form the pose eigen space. Then, based on these nonlinear manifolds we form a B-spline for each individual. Identification is to compute the shortest Euclidean distance from a given test view to the nearest point within one of these B-splines. Once the test view is classified as a familiar individual in the training set, not only can the individual be identified, but also the pose angle can be estimated. Experimental results show that B-spline interpolation can achieve a recognition rate of 95%. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
