Proceedings ArticleDOI
Realistic modeling for facial animation
TL;DR: This paper develops algorithms that automatically construct functional models of the heads of human subjects from laser-scanned range and reflectance data and creates the most authentic and functional facial models of individuals available to date and demonstrates their use in facial animation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A muscle model for animation three-dimensional facial expression
TL;DR: The development of a parameterized facial muscle process, that incorporates the use of a model to create realistic facial animation is described, which allows a richer vocabulary and a more general approach to the modelling of the primary facial expressions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physically‐based facial modelling, analysis, and animation
Demetri Terzopoulos,Keith Waters +1 more
TL;DR: A new 3D hierarchical model of the human face is developed that incorporates a physically-based approximation to facial tissue and a set of anatomically-motivated facial muscle actuators and is efficient enough to produce facial animation at interactive rates on a high-end graphics workstation.
Book
Computer Facial Animation, Second Edition
Frederic I. Parke,Keith Waters +1 more
TL;DR: This book integrates all aspects of computer-generated facial animation including computer-based visualization techniques, three-dimensional character animation, anatomical, and psychological considerations and discusses them in the framework of promising applications in entertainment, human-computer interface, research, and education.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and synthesis of facial image sequences using physical and anatomical models
Demetri Terzopoulos,Keith Waters +1 more
TL;DR: An estimation technique that uses deformable contour models (snakes) to track the nonrigid motions of facial features in video images is developed and estimates muscle actuator controls with sufficient accuracy to permit the face model to resynthesize transient expressions.
