Abstract:Lots of head pose estimation methods have been presented,while there is not any survey that systematically summarizes the existing methods. To address this problem,detailed description of head pose estimation is firstly presented to define what head pose estimation is and how to describe it. Then,the existing head pose estimation methods are categorized according to the data source used by the methods,the automation of the methods and the principle of the methods. Furthermore,the principle and data source are taken as the main line and auxiliary line respectively to detailedly review and analyze the existing head pose estimation methods.
