Speech-Driven Automatic Facial Expression Synthesis
2008 3DTV Conference: The True Vision - Capture, Transmission and Display of 3D Video, 2008This paper focuses on the problem of automatically generating speech synchronous facial expressions for 3D talking heads. The proposed system is speaker and language independent. We parameterize speech data with prosody related features and spectral features together with their first and second order derivatives. Then, we classify the seven emotions in

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.

Spontaneous Facial Expression Analysis and Synthesis for Interactive Facial Animation
2011This chapter describes a probabilistic framework for faithful reproduction of spontaneous facial expressions on a synthetic face model in a real time interactive application. The framework consists of a coupled Bayesian network (BN) to unify the facial expression analysis and synthesis into one coherent structure.

Facial Expression Synthesis and Analysis
2008There exist a number of applications that make use of automatic facial expression synthesis and analysis, especially for interaction or communication between human and computers. This paper proposes a novel approach for facial expression synthesis that can generate realistic expressions for a new person with natural expression details. This approach is

Facial Expression Analysis and Synthesis : a Bilinear Approach
2007 International Conference on Information Acquisition, 2007This paper introduces a bilinear model to analyze and transfer expression or identity of 3D faces, and its applications in 3D and 2D areas. Our aim is to separate identity and expression factors of face data into two independent linear subspaces. First all the data are proceeded to have vertex-to-vertex correspondences.

Multi-expression Generative Adversarial Networks for Facial Expression Synthesis
2019 11th International Conference on Measuring Technology and Mechatronics Automation (ICMTMA), 2019Facial expression synthesis has always been a research hotspot in the field of computer vision and graphics. The facial expressions are complex and vary from person to person. It is a challenging task to synthesize a rich and diverse facial expression. In this paper, we propose a novel network framework: Multi-Expression Generative Adversarial Network (

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 ...

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 ...

Emotion space for analysis and synthesis of facial expression
Proceedings of 1993 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Robot and Human Communication, 2002This paper presents a new emotion model which gives a criteria to decide human's emotion condition from the face image. Our final goal is to realize very natural and user-friendly human-machine communication environment by giving a face to computer terminal or communication system which can also understand the user's emotion condition.
