The invention provides an auricular point position identification and tracking method and device in a three-dimensional space, and belongs to the technical field of intelligent detection, identification and tracking of auricular points in
traditional Chinese medicine. The method comprises the following steps: S1, constructing an ear three-dimensional
point cloud model based on an obtained
human ear image sequence; s2, positioning the three-dimensional space position of each auricular point in the ear three-dimensional
point cloud model, and taking the three-dimensional space position of each auricular point as a positioning reference basis of each auricular point under different visual angles; and S3, mapping the three-dimensional space position of each auricular point in the ear three-dimensional
point cloud model to a two-dimensional view under the to-be-tracked
view angle based on a
pinhole camera model according to the camera parameter of any to-be-tracked
view angle, so as to realize cross-view-angle auricular point identification and tracking. According to the method, continuous, stable and accurate tracking of the auricular point under
multiple view angles can be realized, the method has strong robustness and
occlusion recovery capability, and meanwhile, the method does not need to
label samples of different angles, so that the labeling cost is reduced, and the efficiency is improved.
