Abstract
In this paper, we propose a vision-based approach to detect a face direction from a single monocular view of a face by using a facial feature called facial triangle. Specifically, the proposed method introduces formulas to detect face rotation, horizontally and vertically, using the facial triangle. Our method makes no assumption about the structure of the face and produces an accurate estimate of face direction.
