“…All images were then visually assessed for head pose, face shape and facial expression. Head pose was estimated by the position of the ears, which can appear raised in a downwards head pitch and obscured in a head turn [26,28], face shape according to whether it appeared short/wide, tall/thin or an indeterminate combination, and facial expression by the shape of the lips and cheeks, which appear raised during smiling [48,49] [50]), indicating that the right turned faces tend towards a downward pose and vice versa. Visual assessment of faces by one individual is, however, known to be inaccurate with regards to estimating head pose, and requires a minimum of 10 assessors to statistically correlate with the accuracy of a geometric morphometric analysis [26,28].…”
