Real-Time Eye Blink Detection using Facial Landmarks

Original language description

A real-time algorithm to detect eye blinks in a video sequence from a standard camera is proposed. Recent landmark detectors, trained on in-the-wild datasets exhibit excellent robustness against a head orientation with respect to a camera, varying illumination and facial expressions. We show that the landmarks are detected precisely enough to reliably estimate the level of the eye opening. The proposed algorithm therefore estimates the landmark positions, extracts a single scalar quantity, eye aspect ratio (EAR), characterizing the eye opening in each frame. Finally, an SVM classifier detects eye blinks as a pattern of EAR values in a short temporal window. The simple algorithm outperforms the state-of-the-art results on two standard datasets.
