Statistical modeling for facial expression analysis and synthesis
Proceedings 2003 International Conference on Image Processing (Cat. No.03CH37429), 2004Facial expression interpretation, recognition and analysis is a key issue in visual communication and man to machine interaction. In this paper, we present a technique for extracting appearance parameters from a natural image or video sequence, which allow reproduction of natural looking expressive synthetic faces.

Facial expression synthesis from a single image
2014 IEEE International Conference on Consumer Electronics - Taiwan, 2014Facial expression synthesis has drawn a lot of attention in many applications, such as facial animation and human-computer interactions. Some expression synthesis methods are conducted in 2D domain where only images are taken as input but the muscle deformation is usually neglected regardless of different expressions.

Expressive facial speech synthesis on a robotic platform
2009 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2009This paper presents our expressive facial speech synthesis system Eface, for a social or service robot. Eface aims at enabling a robot to deliver information clearly with empathetic speech and an expressive virtual face. The empathetic speech is built on the Festival speech synthesis system and provides robots the capability to speak with different ...

Facial Expression Synthesis and Animation
2011Living in a computer era, the synergy between man and machine is a must, as the computers are integrated into our everyday life. The computers are surrounding us but their interfaces are far from being friendly. One possible approach to create a friendlier human-computer interface is to build an emotion-sensitive machine that should be able to ...

Markerless reconstruction and synthesis of dynamic facial expressions
Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 2011In this paper we combine methods from the field of computer vision with surface editing techniques to generate animated faces, which are all in full correspondence to each other. The inputs for our system are synchronized video streams from multiple cameras.

Statistical synthesis of facial expressions for the portrayal of emotion
Proceedings of the 2nd international conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques in Australasia and South East Asia, 2004This paper presents a novel technique for the generation of 'video textures' to display human emotion. This is achieved by a method which uses existing video footage to synthesise new sequences of coherent facial expression and head motions.An 'expression space' which is defined by sets of emotion models is constructed using principal components ...

Automatic Synthesis of Realistic Facial Expressions
2007 IEEE International Symposium on Signal Processing and Information Technology, 2007Facial expressions exhibit not only facial feature motions, but also subtle changes in illumination and appearance. Since it is difficult to generate realistic facial expressions by using only geometric deformations, the details such as textures should also be deformed to achieve expression that is more realistic.

Hierarchical facial data modeling for visual expression synthesis
Journal of Visualization, 2003This paper presents a new method for modeling of a personalized 3D face model that has a hierarchical structure of the skin, muscle, and skull for realistic expression synthesis. We start from an accurate facial mesh reconstructed from the individual face measurements. The deformable skin model has a multi-layer structure to approximate different types

Synthesis of expressive facial animations: A multimodal caricatural mirror
Journal on Multimodal User Interfaces, 2007This paper describes a natural and intuitive way to create expressive facial animations, using a novel approach based on the so-called ‘multimodal caricatural mirror’ (MCM). Taking as an input an audio-visual video sequence of the user’s face, the MCM generates a facial animation, in which the prosody and the facial expressions of emotions can either ...

Facial Expression Synthesis with Synchronous Editing of Face Organs
2021Facial expression synthesis (FES) is to generate a new face with a desired expression domain. However, in FES field, many current methods fail to enable relevant facial components to transform simultaneously, which makes the target expression look unnatural.
