Description
Mouth outer
Sum of the Euclidean distance between the mouth contour landmarks and the anchor landmarks. It monitors the zygomatic muscle.
Mouth corner
Sum of the Euclidean distance between the mouth corner landmarks and the anchor landmarks. It monitors the zygomatic muscle.
Eye area
Area of the regions bounded by the closed curves formed by the landmarks in contour of the eyes. It monitors the orbicularis oculi muscle.
Eyebrow activity
Sum of the Euclidean distance between eyebrow landmarks and the anchor landmarks. It monitors the corrugator muscle.
Face area
Area of the region bounded by the closed polygon formed by the most external detected landmarks.
Face motion
Average value of the Euclidean norm of a set of landmarks in the last frames. It describes the total distance the head has moved in any direction in a short period of time.
Facial COM
Average value of all detected landmarks. It describes the overall movement of all facial landmarks.
