Three Dimensional Facial Model Adaptation

چکیده
This paper addresses the problem of adapting a generic 3D face model to a human face of which the frontal and profile views are given. Assuming that a set of feature points have been detected on both views the adaptation procedure initializes with a rigid transformation of the model aiming to minimize the distances of the 3D model feature nodes from the calculated 3D coordinates of the 2D feature points. Then, a non-rigid transformation ensures that the feature nodes are displaced optimally close to their exact calculated positions, dragging their neighbors in a way that does not deform the facial model in an unnatural way.

Three-Dimensional Facial Adaptation for MPEG-4 Talking Heads
This paper studies a new method for three-dimensional (3D) facial model adaptation and its integration into a text-to-speech (TTS) system. The 3D facial adaptation requires a set of two orthogonal views of the user’s face with a number of feature points located on both views. Based on the correspondences of the feature points’ positions, a generic face model is deformed nonrigidly treating ever...

This paper studies a new method for three-dimensional (3D) facial model adaptation and its integration into a Text-to-Speech (TTS) system. The TTS System pronounces, in real time, English or Greek speech and simultaneously animates the adapted face model, thus simulating a natural talking face. The 3D facial adaptation requires a set of two orthogonal views of the user’s face with a number of f...
متن کاملTurning the other cheek: the viewpoint dependence of facial expression after-effects.
How do we visually encode facial expressions? Is this done by viewpoint-dependent mechanisms representing facial expressions as two-dimensional templates or do we build more complex viewpoint independent three-dimensional representations? Recent facial adaptation techniques offer a powerful way to address these questions. Prolonged viewing of a stimulus (adaptation) changes the perception of su...
متن کاملThe contribution of different cues of facial movement to the emotional facial expression adaptation aftereffect.
Probing emotional facial expression recognition with the adaptation paradigm is one way to investigate the processes underlying emotional face recognition. Previous research suggests that these processes are tuned to dynamic facial information (facial movement). Here we examined the tuning of processes involved in the recognition of emotional facial expressions to different sources of facial mo...
متن کاملA Survey on Facial Feature Points Detection Techniques and Approaches
Automatic detection of facial feature points plays an important role in applications such as facial feature tracking, human-machine interaction and face recognition. The majority of facial feature points detection methods using two-dimensional or three-dimensional data are covered in existing survey papers. In this article chosen approaches to the facial features detection have been gathered an...
