讲座内容简介：

讲座内容一：

The face is a central human organ.  It not only identifies a person and but also serves as a major channel to express a person emotion, interest, and intention.  Automatic facial processing and analysis is an active area of research in computer vision, with broad applications in many fields including security, medicine, psychology, entertainment, education, and games.  We have performed automatic facial processing and analysis over 15 years, covering almost every aspect of the face.  In this lecture, I will first summarize our recent work in automatic facial processing and analysis.  The topics to be covered include face detection and tracking, facial landmakr point detection and tracking, facial recognition, facial expression recognition, face pose estimation and tracking, eye detection and eye gaze tracking.   I will then discuss some applications for facial processing and analysis.  The lecture will feature video demos as well as live demos of some of our facial processing algorithms.
