Hari C.V. has successfully completed my Ph.D from the Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering, National Institute of Technology Calicut (NITC), Kerala, India under the guidance of Dr. Praveen Sankaran on 24th May 2019. The title of the thesis is ``Clustered Manifolds for Face Pose Estimation and Driver Distraction Monitoring". The main objectives of this thesis are to model the face pose images as non-linear manifold(s), model the non-linear manifold into locally linear regions, design unsupervised locally linear algorithms for pose estimation, and driver distraction analysis using face pose cues on a newly developed database.
