Abstract

An apparatus for determining a pose(s) of an object(s) may include a processor and memory storing executable computer code causing the apparatus to at least perform operations including receiving a detected image of at least one face and analyzing the image of the at least one face based on data of at least one model identifying one or more poses. The poses may be related in part to at least one of a position or an orientation of respective faces. The computer program code may further cause the apparatus to determine that the face corresponds to one of the poses based in part on one or more items of data of the image passing criteria identified by the model as corresponding to the pose. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.
