Abstract
Various embodiments of methods and apparatus for feature point localization are disclosed. An object in an input image may be detected. A profile model may be applied to determine feature point locations for each object component of the detected object. Applying the profile model may include globally optimizing the feature points for each object component to find a global energy minimum. A component-based shape model may be applied to update the respective feature point locations for each object component.
