| Abstract(in English) | The authors are developing a vision-based intension transfer technique by recognizing user's face expressions and movements, to help free and convenient communications with aged or disabled persons who find difficulties in talking, discriminating small character prints and operating keyboards by hands and fingers. In this paper, we report a prototype system, where layered daily conversations are successively selected by recognizing the transition in shape of user's mouth part using camera image sequences settled in front of the user. A method which automatically recognizes these four patterns by analyzing the intensity histogram data around the mouth part region is newly developed. The confirmation of a selection on the way is executed by detecting the open and shut movements of mouth though the temporal change in intensity histogram data. Experimental results of mouth part shape pattern recognition by twenty-five persons have shown the effectiveness of the method. |
