A method for providing multi-view face alignment may include causing performance of face detection with respect to image data to determine a rough position and pose of a face in the image data, causing performance of pose classification to classify the pose of the face into one of a plurality of pose categories, and employing a selected joint model application routine. The selected joint model application routine may be selected based on the classification of the pose. The method may further include employing one model among models employed in the selected joint model application routine to perform face alignment.
