Abstract: We present an end-to-end head-pose estimation network designed to predict Euler angles through the full range head yaws from a single RGB image. Existing methods perform well for frontal views but few target head pose from all viewpoints. This has applications in autonomous driving and retail. Our network builds on multi-loss approaches with changes to loss functions and training strategies adapted to wide range estimation. Additionally, we extract ground truth labelings of anterior views from a current panoptic dataset for the first time. The resulting Wide Headpose Estimation Network (WHENet) is the first fine-grained modern method applicable to the full-range of head yaws (hence wide) yet also meets or beats state-of-the-art methods for frontal head pose estimation. Our network is compact and efficient for mobile devices and applications. ArXiv
We provided two use case of the WHENet, image input and video input in this repo. Please make sure you installed all the requirments before running the demo code by pip install -r requirements.txt. Additionally, please download the YOLOv3 model for head detection and put it under yolo_v3/data.
To run WHENet with image input, please put images and bbox.txt under one folder (E.g. Sample/) and just run pthon demo.py.
Format of bbox.txt are showed below:
image_name,x_min y_min x_max y_max
mov_001_007585.jpeg,240 0 304 83
We used YOLO_v3 in the video demo to get the cropped head image. In order to customize some of the functions we have put the yolo implementation and the pre-trained model in the repo. Hollywood head and Crowdhuman are used to train the head detection YOLO model.
