Abstract

Face contour is a kind of intuitional characteristic at the first glance. Due to its simplicity, it is impressive and unforgettable. It can be used for face indexing and retrieval. In this paper, we integrated the techniques of the Active Shape Models (ASM) and the semantic knowledge engine to establish the effective face retrieval framework. Furthermore, we pointed out that other organs on the face also can be described by the ASM and semantic web techniques and the overall face description can be figured out. It is feasible and efficient interactive way in text-based face image search.
