Active Shape Model (ASM) is a most effective method of facial landmarking. It employs two models, profile model and shape model, to match the position of facial landmark. In this paper, we introduce a new model based on relative position feature (RPF) in local region to improve ASM. We found the fact that landmarks with larger matching error have more shape matching displacement. So, in our method, RPF model is used to adjust the position of landmarks with more shape matching displacement in every matching iteration. STASM (Stacked ASM) is practical standard of ASM and is proved to be the best method of locating face landmarks. Our experiments on STASM show significant performance improving, especially on databases in which faces are partially blocked by glasses or artificial black square.

Over the last decade, a driver’s distraction has gained popularity due to its increased significance and high impact on road accidents. Various factors, such as mood disorder, anxiety, nervousness, illness, loud music, and driver’s head rotation, contribute significantly to causing a distraction. Many solutions have been proposed to address this problem; however, various aspects of it are still unresolved. The study proposes novel geometric and spatial scale-invariant features under a boosting framework for detecting a driver’s distraction due to the driver’s head panning. These features are calculated using facial landmark detection algorithms, including the Active Shape Model (ASM) and Boosted Regression with Markov Networks (BoRMaN). The proposed approach is compared with six existing state-of-the-art approaches using four benchmark datasets, including DrivFace dataset, Boston University (BU) dataset, FT-UMT dataset, and Pointing’04 dataset. The proposed approach outperforms the existing approaches achieving an accuracy of 94.43%, 92.08%, 96.63%, and 83.25% on standard datasets.
