摘要

The paper presents the 3D Bin Head Pose Estimator, a deep learning system designed for robust head pose estimation from RGB images in unconstrained conditions. The proposed framework utilizes a ResNet50-based neural network that integrates both classification and regression strategies to improve accuracy and reliability.The classification module categorizes images into feasible human head poses, providing a coarse but effective estimation, while the regression module refines the prediction by computing the precise rotation matrix corresponding to the detected pose. This dual approach ensures enhanced generalization across various head orientations, lighting conditions, and occlusions.To validate its effectiveness, the system was trained and tested on an extensive dataset encompassing diverse head poses and real-world variations. Experimental results highlight that the 3D Bin Head Pose Estimator surpasses several state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy and robustness. The system’s ability to handle extreme poses and challenging scenarios makes it a valuable tool for applications in human-computer interaction, virtual reality, and surveillance systems.
