About AAM it will be useful for face detection

We demonstrate a fast, robust method of interpreting face images using an Active Appearance Model (AAM). An AAM contains a statistical model of shape and grey-level appearance which can generalise to almost any face.

基于 AAM 的人脸特征定位方法在建立人脸模型过程中，不但考虑 局部特征信息，而且综合考虑到全局形状和纹理信息，通过对人脸形状特征和纹 理特征进行统计分析，建立人脸混合模型，即为最终对应的 AAM 模型。-AAM facial features localization method based on face model in establishing the process, not only consider local feature information, and consi
