in this paper, a novel patch geodesic derivative pattern (pgdp) describing the texture map of a face through its shape data is proposed. geodesic adjusted textures are encoded into derivative patterns for similarity measurement between two 3d images with different pose and expression variations. an extensive experimental investigation is conducted using the publicly available bosphorus and bu-3...

background : improvement of facial beauty is a major reason why patients with dentofacial problems opt for orthognathic surgery. people are eventually judged by their facial appearance by themselves, their friends & family and even surgeons. with the recent developments in technology, we now have a 3d structure that can build and analyze 3d images before & after surgery and review the extent of...

This paper presents a method for 3D face modeling from a set of 2D images. This method is based on deformation of a pre-defined generic polygonal face mesh to the specific face of the person, presented on several images taken from different views. This deformation is based upon matching points and silhouette curves. To provide high accuracy we have chosen an interactive way of getting informati...

Face orientation can be used to derive vigilance cues about the vehicle driver. In this paper, a face pose estimation model based on visual features is presented. The face orientation is estimated through SVM with features detection such as eyes, mouth, facial outlines and so on. Innovative point of this research is the utilization of the features triangle, which composed with eyes and mouth lo...

In this report, we present a method to generate 3D shape and color information of a face from a single image. This is done in two steps, firstly we learn a morphable model of 3D face from some exemplar faces. Using this 3D model we could generate various novel faces by changing the model parameters. In the second step we formulate a method to fit this model to a single image to find out the mod...

Realistic 3D face model is desired in various applications such as face recognition, games, avatars, animations, and etc. Construction of 3D face model is composed of 1) building a face shape model and 2) rendering the face shape model. Thus, building a realistic 3D face shape model is an essential step for realistic 3D face model. Recently, 3D morphable model is successfully introduced to deal...

Realistic 3D face model is more precise in representing pose, illumination, and expression of face than 2D face model so that it can be utilized usefully in various applications such as face recognition, games, avatars, animations, and etc. In this paper, we propose a 3D face modeling method based on 3D dense morphable shape model. The proposed 3D modeling method first constructs a 3D dense mor...
