How to extract the facial landmarks for the character images?

[zhenxili96]

Hi, to construct the human-character data pair, we need to extract the geometric features for character images. In your paper, you mentioned that "We extract the geometric features for the character images in the same manner", which means that maybe you used (human) facial landmarks detector to extract landmarks for character images.

Since all these character images are generated by maya scripts, why not calculate the real landmark positions (ground truth landmarks) in maya which should be much better that using human facial landmark detector? Or if you do calculate landmarks for characters in maya, where to find these character landmark data for FERG-DB?

Appreciate your reply in advance. Thanks.
