Facial Motion Cloning Using Global Shape Deformation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel Facial Motion Cloning method relying on the combination of the radial basis functions (RBF) based scattered data interpolation with the encoding capabilities of the MPEG-4 Facial and Body Animation (FBA) international standard. Beside from an initial manual selection of feature points, our method works fully automatically without user interaction. The produced talking head is able to perform generic face animation which is stored in a MPEG-4 FBA data stream.

Lip-Synching Using Speaker-Specific Articulation, Shape and Appearance Models
We describe here the control, shape and appearance models that are built using an original photogrammetric method to capture characteristics of speaker-specific facial articulation, anatomy, and texture. Two original contributions are put forward here: the trainable trajectory formation model that predicts articulatory trajectories of a talking face from phonetic input and the texture model tha...
متن کاملFacial Animation Based on Feature Points
This paper presents a hybrid method for synthesizing natural animation of facial expression with data from motion capture. The captured expression was transferred from the space of source performance to that of a 3D target face using an accurate mapping process in order to realize the reuse of motion data. The transferred animation was then applied to synthesize the expression of the target mod...
متن کاملAn Efficient Algorithm for Motion Detection Based Facial Expression Recognition using Optical Flow
One of the popular methods for recognition of facial expressions such as happiness, sadness and surprise is based on deformation of facial features. Motion vectors which show these deformations can be specified by the optical flow. In this method, for detecting emotions, the resulted set of motion vectors are compared with standard deformation template that caused by facial expressions. In this...
متن کاملAnalyzing Facial Expressions for Virtual Conferencing
In this paper we present a method for the estimation of three-dimensional motion from 2-D image sequences showing head and shoulder scenes typical for video telephone and tele-conferencing applications. We use a 3-D model that speci es the color and shape of the person in the video. Additionally, the model constrains the motion and deformation in the face to a set of facial expressions which ar...
متن کاملPainting on Canvas: A Facial Sketching Control System
Facial Animation in films and videogames has traditionally relied on creating all the facial poses and animation controls in the early stages of a production. This process, whether for key framed controls or motion captured animation, takes a lot of time and effort. We present a novel sketching control system inspired in the way artists draw, where a stroke defines the shape of an object and re...
