Constructing a 3D morphable face from a single picture
Seiken Higashionna
Committee
Abstract
This paper presents the construction of 3D face models using a correspondence established between 2D Active Appearance Models (AAM) and 3D Morphable Models (3DMM).The hypothesis is that a 3D face model may be generated via a 2D-to-3D corresponds between Active Appearance parameters and 3D Morphable Model parameters. There are a few different approaches that are currently used to construct 3D morphable face models. This work, in contrast though, is geared toward simplicity and speed in establishing a rough likeness that could be applied in a variety of 3D face software such as games, animation, etc. In theory, this technique will construct a 3D morphable face significantly faster compared to one of the primary techniques thus far, Blanz and Vetter’s approach described in their previous work. The quality of generated 3D models is analyzed subjectively and quantitatively to conclude that this has merit.
