Generic Face Animation

Abstract

International audienceIn computer vision, the animation of objects has attracted a lot attention, specially the animations of 3D face models. The animation of face models requires in general to manually adapt each generic movement (open/close mouth) to each specific head geometry. In this work we propose a technique for the animation of any face model avoiding most of the manual intervention. In order to achieve this we assume that: (1) faces, despite obvious differences are quite similar and a single generic model can be used to simplify deformations and (2) using this face model, a simple interpolation technique can be used, with minimal manual intervention. Several examples are presented to verify the realism of the obtained animations
