Abstract:
Accurate face representation and modeling could help improve the 3D face recognition. This research attempts to model the human face based on a single image input in a high level of accuracy. We developed a novel face modeling system using an explicit face surface representation, the so-called topographic representation, and a generic model individulization process, as outlined in Figure 1.
