A Practical Approach for Identity-Embodied 3D Artistic Face Modeling

الملخص EN

This paper describes a practical technique for 3D artistic face modeling where a human identity can be inserted into a 3D artistic face.

This approach can automatically extract the human identity from a 3D human face model and then transfer it to a 3D artistic face model in a controllable manner.

Its core idea is to construct a face geometry space and a face texture space based on a precollected 3D face dataset.

Then, these spaces are used to extract and blend the face models together based on their facial identities and styles.

This approach can enable a novice user to interactively generate various artistic faces quickly using a slider control.

Also, it can run in real-time on an off-the-shelf computer without GPU acceleration.

This approach can be broadly used in various 3D artistic face modeling applications such as a rapid creation of a cartoon crowd with different cartoon characters.
