3D face modeling using two orthogonal views and a generic face model

چکیده
We present an algorithm for 3-D face modeling from a frontal and a profile view images of a person’s face. The algorithm starts by computing the 3D coordinates of automatically extracted facial feature points. The coordinates of the selected feature points are then used to deform a 3D generic face model to obtain a 3D face model for that person. Procrustes Analysis is used to globally minimize the distance between facial feature vertices in the model and the corresponding 3D points obtained from the images. Then, local deformation is performed on the facial feature vertices to obtain a more realistic 3D model for the person. Preliminary experiments to asses the applicability of the models for face recognition show encouraging results.

Sequential Clustering based Facial Feature Extraction Method for Automatic Creation of Facial Models from Orthogonal Views
Multiview 3D face modeling has attracted increasing attention recently and has become one of the potential avenues in future video systems. We aim to make more reliable and robust automatic feature extraction and natural 3D feature construction from 2D features detected on a pair of frontal and profile view face images. We propose several heuristic algorithms to minimize possible errors introdu...
متن کاملModel-based Face Capture from Orthogonal Images
From a survey of techniques, a novel method was implemented for creating photo-realistic 3D facial models from 2D images of a subject. Starting from two orthogonal views, a userassisted procedure was employed to recover 3D coordinates of a sparse set of chosen locations on the subject's face. A scattered data interpolation algorithm was then used to deform a generic face mesh to t the particula...

In this paper, we present a new semiautomatic method to reconstruct 3D facial model for animation from two orthogonal pictures taken from front and side views. The method is based on extracting the hair and face outlines and detecting interior features in the region of mouth, eyes, etc. We show how to use structured snakes for extracting the profile boundaries and facial features. Then DFFD, a ...

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...
