Computer Vision, ML, and AI in the Study of Fine Art
WEBApr 30, 2024 · Figure 1. (L) The head orientation of a subject’s pose can be described by rotation angles about three perpendicular axes—yaw, roll, and pitch. (R) We model the portrait as a projection of the subject’s head onto the picture plane of the artwork. The pose angles are computed by a deep neural network from the geometric configuration of extracted visual keypoints in the artwork.
