VOSM

What does VOSM stand for?

Vision Open Statistical Model (VOSM) contains variants of 2D Statistical Models, namely, variants of ASMs and AAMs. It's mainly composed of two parts:

  • Building: build the statistical models (both 2D and 3D are supported in VOSM). For now, the following models can be built by specifying different parameters:

    • Shape Model: -t "SM", fundamental shape model
    • Texture Model: -t "TM", fundamental texture model
    • Appearance Model: -t "AM", fundamental appearance model, originated from Basic AAM
    • Image Alignment appearance Model: -t "IA", inverse compositional image alignment, for ICIA AAM
    • Feature Model: -t "FM", a generalized model based on ANY type of features adopted by the users
    • Shape model with Local Texture Constraints: -t "SMLTC", originated from CLM
    • SMNDPROFILE. -t "SMNDPROFILE", including original 1D profile ASM and 2D profile ASM proposed by me, please check chapter 3 of my PhD thesis.
  • Fitting: test the effects of fitting (ONLY 2D fitting is suppprted in VOSM)

Current Version

0.3.5 is our FIRST release.

Prerequisites

Download, Compile, and Build

$ git clone https://github.com/jiapei100/VOSM
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ccmake ../
$ make -j8
$ sudo make install

Two commands and eight libraries will be built:

By default, 2 commands will be installed under: /usr/local/bin:

  • testsmbuilding
  • testsmfitting

By default, 8 libraries will be installed under: /usr/local/lib:

  • libvosm_comalgs.so
  • libvosm_common.so
  • libvosm_cvcommon.so
  • libvosm_ensembletraining.so
  • libvosm_featureextraction.so
  • libvosm_integraltransform.so
  • libvosm_smbuilding.so
  • libvosm_smfitting.so

How to use VOSM?

Please refer to our wiki How to use VOSM?.

Cascade Files for Face Components

In file testsmfitting, 4 cascade files are used to detect 4 different face parts:

which can be found in opencv_contrib.
